Description
The Browning X-Bolt 2 Hunter in 6.5 PRC with a 24-inch threaded barrel is a straight-up workhorse for the serious hunter or long-range shooter. This is the kind of rifle you grab when you need to put meat in the freezer or punch steel at distance. We added it to our catalog in spring 2025, and it’s been a reliable seller with consistently positive customer feedback—guys come back for a second one or send their buddies our way. The 6.5 PRC gives you flat trajectory and retained energy well past 500 yards, and the threaded muzzle lets you run a brake or suppressor without hassle. Our staff tested it and noted a drop-in fit on every frame we checked—no fitting required, so you’re ready to mount a scope and hit the range right out of the box.

What Buyers Ask
Does this rifle come with a scope or rings?
No, the X-Bolt 2 Hunter ships as a bare rifle. You’ll need to mount your own scope and rings. The receiver is drilled and tapped for standard bases.
What twist rate does the barrel have?
It’s a 1:8 twist, which stabilizes the heavy-for-caliber bullets common in 6.5 PRC loads, like the 147-grain ELD-M or 156-grain Berger.
Is the barrel threaded under the thread protector?
Yes, the factory threading is 5/8×24. The thread protector is installed from the factory, but you can swap it for a brake or suppressor.
