The X-Bolt builds on the proven successes of past Browning rifles, and adds numerous improvements that are certain to place the X-Bolt at the top of the pack. The most notable feature of the Browning Composite Stalker is the completely adjustable three level Feather Trigger system that provides a clean, crisp pull with no take up or creep and minimal over travel. Additional features include a stainless steel glass bedded receiver that is drilled and tapped for scope mounts, a free floating, target crown stainless steel barrel, Dura Touch Armor Coating, sling swivel studs and an Inflex Technology recoil pad.

The 270 WSM (Winchester Short Magnum) was introduced in 2001 along with the 7mm WSM as the second and thirds members of Winchester's family of short magnums. It uses short (2.10-inch) case suitable for housing in a short bolt action, and with its short, fat .555-inch base diameter) unbelted case it is an accurate and efficient cartridge. With 130-grain bullets at 3300 feet per second and 150-grain bullets at 3150 it is faster than the 270 Winchester (and delivers more energy)...but but not quite as fast as the 270 Weatherby Magnum. Excellent for deer and mountain game and suitable for elk, it has a significant following and is probably the second-most popular of the several short magnums (after the 300 Winchester Short Magnum). Several manufacturers have chambered rifles, and ammunition is available from multiple sources. Gunwriter Craig Boddington has written that it is "the most useful of the new group of short magnum cartridges." — Craig Boddington
