The bolt-action rifle was forever changed with the introduction of the Browning X-Bolt. The X-Bolt builds on the proven successes of past Browning rifles, and adds numerous improvements that place the X-Bolt at the top of any side by side comparison. Most notable is an adjustable three-lever Feather Trigger™ system that offers the best feel on any Browning rifle ever. A bolt unlock button works with the top-tang safety to offer enhanced safety while unloading. Styling features offer more compact dimensions for a smaller, quicker, sleeker look and feel, and also trims weight. To ensure the stability of optics, scope bases are attached to the receiver using four screws per base. Innovation is the Browning tradition, and the X-Bolt is just the latest example.

7mm WSM
Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 7mm Winchester Short Magnum (WSM) was introduced along with the 270 WSM in 2002. Case length is 2.100-inches, allowing it to be housed in most short bolt actions, yet the efficiency of its short, fat case allows performance very similar to the 7mm Remington Magnum. Despite obvious value the 7mm WSM has not yet become popular, perhaps as a combined result of the large number of unbelted magnums introduced in a short period; and the large number of fast 7mm cartridges on the market. Whether popular or not, the 7mm WSM is an accurate and effective cartridge, suitable for any purpose one might envision for the 7mm Remington Magnum. — Craig Boddington
