I can't comment on the X2. Don't even know anyone with one. But there is only one complaint I have against my browning gold slug and most slugguns that are used for regular shotguns, they all don't have a cheek to be able to use a scope properly. I think browning and remington should put a stock on that will raise your cheek some to be able to use a scope properly. Espeically if they sell the gun as a slug gun as my gold is the, "deer rifled slug".
