Browning 036086282 XB2 MT 6.5 Creedmoor Threaded Barrel Rifle

The Browning X-Bolt 2 Mountain hunting rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor delivers precision and lightweight handling for backcountry hunters and long-range marksmen who demand performance at elevation. Built on Browning's redesigned receiver and bolt platform, this rifle features a carbon fiber stock with compression-molded carbon fiber bedding block—a setup that minimizes weight while maintaining the structural integrity necessary for consistent sub-minute-of-angle accuracy across extended shooting sessions.

The spiral fluted, threaded barrel wears a Cerakote Tungsten finish that resists corrosion in harsh alpine conditions and salt-heavy environments. The included Recoil Hawg muzzle brake reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise—critical advantages when shooting from unstable positions or at altitude where shooter fatigue directly impacts accuracy. X-Lock scope mounting system ensures repeatable zero and rapid mounting/removal of optics. Easy-to-reach top-tang safety allows positive engagement without shifting your shooting hand or cheek weld, essential for fast target transitions and hunting situations where milliseconds matter.

Purpose-built for hunters pursuing elk, mule deer, and similar game at 300+ yards, the X-Bolt 2 Mountain combines the ballistic efficiency of 6.5 Creedmoor—a cartridge known for excellent sectional density and wind deflection characteristics—with a platform engineered to keep overall weight under control. The threaded barrel accepts suppressors or aftermarket brake components, offering flexibility for different hunting scenarios and shooting disciplines.

Stainless steel receiver construction resists oxidation in wet conditions. Comes with thread protector for safe transport and storage. This is a rifle designed for serious mountain hunters and precision shooters who understand that saving pounds at the gun translates directly to more distance covered and better performance when the shot matters.
