Browning X-bolt 2 Brn 036037282 Xb2 Pro Mcm Srmb 6.5crd 22 Urbamb

The Browning X-Bolt 2 Pro McMillan in 6.5 Creedmoor is a premium bolt-action hunting rifle built for serious big game hunters who refuse to compromise on weight, accuracy, or durability. This isn't a budget build—it's engineered around a McMillan Game Warden 2.0 carbon fiber stock with Urban Carbon Ambush finish, paired with a carbon fiber–wrapped stainless steel barrel topped with a Recoil Hawg muzzle brake. The result is a rifle that delivers the rigidity and precision of a tactical platform in a package light enough to pack into rough country.

Browning's X-Bolt 2 redesign focuses on refinement where it matters most. The new receiver includes additional bolt guidance surfaces for smoother, more reliable cycling—critical when you're glassing for elk in November. The spiral-fluted bolt with extended handle and revised knob shape cycles fast and clears most modern optics without obstruction. Up top, a 20 MOA Picatinny rail with integral bubble level is ready for your glass, while the X-Lock scope mounting system uses four screws per base to lock your optic down solid. The short 60° bolt lift keeps your shooting hand position aggressive and lets you snap off follow-ups quickly.

The DLX trigger system is adjustable and set to hunting weights, and the receiver is bedded at the recoil lug and action screws for stability while the barrel floats free. A Pachmayr Decelerator pad manages recoil, and a top-tang safety puts a manual control within easy reach. The Carbon Gray Cerakote finish on the stainless action and bolt resists rust in wet conditions. Threading is 5/8–24 with a thread protector and muzzle brake included, so you're equipped to suppress or further manage recoil. This is a rifle for hunters who understand that carrying less weight over a long day means more ethical, confident shots when it counts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the X-Bolt 2 Pro McMillan weigh compared to standard bolt-action hunting rifles?

The carbon fiber stock and wrapped barrel significantly reduce overall weight compared to traditional wood or composite stocks, making this rifle a strong choice for backcountry hunting where every pound counts. Exact weight specifications are not provided; we recommend contacting us for precise figures.

Is the Recoil Hawg muzzle brake removable, and can I use a suppressor instead?

Yes. The barrel is threaded 5/8–24, and a thread protector is included. You can remove the muzzle brake and either attach a suppressor or use the protector. The choice is yours based on your shooting environment and local regulations.

What scope mounting options does the X-Lock system support?

The X-Lock system uses four screws per base for a secure connection to the receiver. Standard Picatinny-mount scope bases compatible with this rail configuration will work. The integrated 20 MOA rail is also helpful for long-range shooting.

Is the DLX trigger adjustable after purchase?

The DLX trigger is adjustable and comes pre-set to hunting weights. We recommend consulting Browning's manual or a qualified gunsmith for safe adjustment; improper trigger work can create safety hazards.
