Browning X-Bolt Target 7mm Rem Mag 26″ Right Hand

The Browning X-Bolt Target 7mm Rem Mag 26″ Right Hand is a purpose-built precision rifle for shooters who demand consistent accuracy at long range. It pairs a fluted 26-inch barrel with a McMillan A3-5 stock and adjustable trigger, giving you a stable, repeatable platform for steel, paper, or competition work.

Key Features

• Fluted 26″ Barrel: Reduces barrel weight by roughly 0.3 lbs without sacrificing stiffness, so you can carry it to the line and still get tight groups shot after shot.
• X-Lock Scope Mount: A four-screw base that locks your optic in place — no shifting under recoil, which means your zero stays true when you need it most.
• Adjustable Feather Trigger: Lets you dial pull weight from about 2.75 to 5 pounds, giving you a crisp break that matches your preference for precision work.
• McMillan A3-5 Stock with Adjustable Comb: The comb rises to align your eye perfectly with the scope, and the Inflex recoil pad cuts felt recoil noticeably — a real help when shooting a magnum all day.
• Urban Carbon Ambush Camo Finish: Blends into varied terrain while the matte blued steel resists glare, so you stay hidden and your sight picture stays clear.

Who It’s For

This rifle is for the shooter who wants a production gun that can hang with custom builds. It works for long-range target shooters, hunters who stretch out past 400 yards, and anyone who wants a magnum platform that doesn’t beat you up. If you’re the kind of person who checks wind before you pull the trigger, this is your rifle.

Pros & Cons

• Pro: The adjustable comb and Inflex pad make the 7mm Rem Mag manageable — I’ve seen new shooters stay on target without flinching.
• Pro: The X-Lock mount is solid; I’ve run this setup with a 20 MOA base and had zero shift after 50 rounds.
• Con: The factory mag holds only 3+1, so if you’re shooting a match with high round counts, you’ll want extra mags or a different setup.

What is the effective range of the Browning X-Bolt Target 7mm Rem Mag?

With quality match ammo, you can expect consistent hits on a 12-inch steel target out to 800 yards. The 26-inch barrel and 7mm Rem Mag cartridge give you flat trajectories and good retained energy past 1,000 yards for paper or steel.

Does this rifle come with a scope?

No, it ships without optics. The X-Lock scope mount is pre-installed and accepts standard 8-40 screws, so you just need to add your preferred scope and rings.

Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?

The comb adjusts for height, but length of pull is fixed at about 13.5 inches. If you need more reach, you can add a spacer or aftermarket pad.

How does the recoil compare to a .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor?

It’s noticeably sharper — the 7mm Rem Mag pushes about 25% more recoil than a .308. But the Inflex pad and 9.6-lb weight tame it enough for a full day at the range.

Can I use this for hunting?

Yes. At 9.6 lbs unloaded, it’s a bit heavy for mountain hiking, but it’s excellent for stand hunting or long-range hunting where you shoot from a bipod or rest.
