Default RE: x-bolt vs 700


ORIGINAL: Uncle Mike

All said... Get the Remington. The x-Bolt has not proven to be a good shooter so far. Pull the bolt out of one and I think you'll be amused to say the least!
As was stated earlier, the Browning is made in... dare I say it... Japan.
I personally dont care for the euro trashish look the X-Bolt has. On a good note, the triggers seem to have some promise, I have not had any customers really complain of the triggers. That's not to say the triggers are great, but adequate.
It is a shame Browning, once the maker of fine firearms has taken the turn they have. Still riding on the old Browning name.
My x-bolt is a shooter, as stated here:

Can't wait to hit the range this season!
