## Description

The X-Bolt is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .243 Win with a 22-inch barrel and a Grade I black walnut stock in satin finish. At 6 lbs 8 oz it's light enough to carry all day in the field. The cut checkering at 18 LPI gives a secure grip, and the 1-inch / 1.25-inch Inflex recoil pad takes some edge off the felt recoil without adding much bulk.

### Features

Stock dimensions (13 5/8" length of pull, 11/16" drop at comb, 1/2" drop at heel) work for most right-hand shooters without modification. The 4-round detachable magazine is functional for hunting though shooters who prefer higher capacity will want to plan around it.

## What Customers Say

*AI-generated insights from customer reviews*

Owners of the Browning X-Bolt .243 Win Walnut consistently praise the walnut stock's appearance and the overall fit and finish. Accuracy reports are positive across the board. It shoots well at typical hunting and target distances.

The .243 Win caliber's light recoil comes up often as a positive, making it approachable for newer shooters or anyone sensitive to recoil. The bolt is smooth and the ergonomics are generally well-regarded, though fit is personal and some shooters find the stock dimensions don't suit them without adjustment.

Price is the main friction point. It's on the higher end for a walnut-stock hunting rifle, which draws comparisons to competitors. Some owners also discuss adding optics or other modifications, as the platform handles those without issues.
