Browning 036031294 X-Bolt 2 6.5 PRC 22" 4-Round Rifle

The Browning X-Bolt 2 6.5 PRC 22" 4-Round Rifle delivers precision and reliability for long-range hunters and precision shooters who demand match-grade accuracy in a compact, field-ready platform. Built on decades of bolt-action refinement, this rifle bridges the gap between tactical precision and hunting versatility, serving shooters who require sub-MOA consistency beyond 500 yards. The X-Bolt 2 platform has earned trust across military contract trials and civilian precision competitions for its repeatability and durability under sustained fire.

The 6.5 PRC (Precision Rifle Cartridge) chambering balances high ballistic coefficient projectiles with moderate recoil impulse, reducing shooter fatigue during extended shooting sessions while maintaining energy retention to 1,000+ yards—critical for both tactical operations and western hunting applications. The 22-inch barrel length optimizes muzzle velocity for 6.5 PRC loads while maintaining practical field-carry weight at 9.25 lbs, a specification that reflects careful engineering of steel profile and bolt-face geometry. The four-round detachable box magazine ensures quick reload cycles and pairs seamlessly with standard AICS-pattern magazine accessories, allowing shooters to configure the rifle for various operational scenarios without permanent modification.

This configuration serves precision rifle competitors, military designated marksman roles, and hunters pursuing game requiring ethical shot placement at extended range. The X-Bolt 2 action integrates with standard Browning scope mounts and accepts mil-standard Picatinny rail systems through factory-drilled receiver holes—no gunsmithing required. Recoil-sensitive shooters and those operating in noise-restricted environments benefit from the 6.5 PRC's lower report compared to larger magnum cartridges, making this rifle particularly suitable for training scenarios and hunting in populated regions where sound management matters.
