Default RE: Browning X-Bolt

Haven't looked into it too much, I love my Abolt.

IMO there are a few reasons you buy a lightweight rifle.......one you can get away with it being light due to using a small cartridge, one that doesn't kick very much.

The other more of a mountain type setup, easy to carry, and willing to pay the price in recoil.....though again I probably wouldnt get a killer recoil round, but I may consider one with some recoil, though alot of times if you give up accuracy due to lightweight on a round that recoils, you're kinda voiding the rifle altogether, so if accuracy gets thrown out the window, why even own a rifle.
