Owners of the X-Bolt 2 Medallion in 6.5 Creedmoor often cite the carbon fiber wrapped barrel as a practical weight-saving feature without sacrificing barrel stiffness. The matte blued receiver has a traditional look that appeals to hunters who prefer a classic finish over Cerakote.

The Recoil Hawg muzzle brake works well at reducing muzzle rise, though it is notably loud at the bench. Some owners run hearing protection even for a few rounds at the range.

The 6.5 Creedmoor chambering is well-regarded for versatility, and owners find the X-Bolt 2 Medallion handles it without issues. The trigger is considered a highlight of the platform, though a small number of owners have noted it required adjustment out of the box.
