[QUOTE="richhymas, post: 1771072, member: 43504"] I own 2 browning x-bolts. Used the mcarbo spring on both to get the trigger pull down to around 2.5-3 lbs. both guns shoot great with hand loads. 1/4 MOA or so. 3 shot group out of the 7 mag was 2.5 inches at 600 yards. Killed a deer at 530 and another at 590 this year, one with each gun. I was able to thread the break that goes with my thunder beast break onto the barrel. Just check, I think they are standard thread. Gun is light and balanced. Your question about the action may come into play if you try to touch the lands with long bullets. I can’t touch the lands and fit in the mag with the 300 win mag but the 7mm Remington will shoot the 195 Berger’s loaded to .005 off the lands and they fit in the mag. I can’t speak for the other option but I will be buying another browning x-bold for a long range hunting rifle next time I need one. Mine both came with break and separate thread protector. [/QUOTE]
