Consensus Opinion Yet on Browning X-Bolts?

[Clevinger]

What are your thoughts or perceptions of the Browning X-Bolts?

Fair guess that most people have no exposure to one?

Just a dressed up MDL 700 with a 3 lug bolt. All the shortcommings of the Rem 700, in a slightly nicer package. Overpriced in my opinion, but serviceable.

I like them. The 60 degree bolt is a great feature, and they are well made and accurate. My only gripe is that they don't offer their all-weather versions in left hand. They list the white gold medallion in left hand, which is stainless with wood stock, but there are none to be had. I found several in Canada, but they cannot be imported. Did I mention that I'm left handed?

The original A-bolt was very accurate and reliable... every one of them I ever experienced. The X-bolt is new(er), and one would hope it maintains the same characteristics.
