Browning 035581282 X-Bolt Target Max Competition Heavy 6.5 Creedmoor – 26″ Threaded

The Browning 035581282 X-Bolt Target Max Competition Heavy 6.5 Creedmoor is a top-tier precision rifle engineered for long-range target shooting, PRS competition, and demanding hunting applications. It features a massive 26-inch heavy bull barrel with satin gray Cerakote finish, 5/8″-24 suppressor-ready threads, and a factory-installed Recoil Hawg muzzle brake to dramatically reduce recoil and improve follow-up shot speed. The fast 1:7 twist rate excels with heavy, long match bullets, delivering exceptional stability and sub-MOA accuracy at extended ranges.

The fully adjustable Max composite stock allows precise comb height and length-of-pull customization for perfect eye relief and cheek weld, while the adjustable Target DLX trigger offers a crisp, user-settable pull. With 10+1 capacity via AICS-pattern magazines, a 20 MOA Picatinny rail, three-lug 60° bolt lift, and matte blued steel receiver, X-Bolt Target Max Competition Heavy 6.5 is built for serious shooters. Weighing around 10 lbs, the X-Bolt Target Max Competition Heavy combines legendary Browning accuracy, modern ergonomics, and suppressor compatibility — making it one of the best long-range 6.5 Creedmoor platforms available for precision and competition use.
