The Browning X-Bolt 3rd Generation rotary magazine transforms the feeding reliability of long-action rifles chambered in 26 Nosler. This black polymer magazine represents a significant upgrade over traditional box magazines, delivering consistent cartridge presentation and reduced feeding issues during rapid follow-up shots.
What Makes This Different
The rotary design eliminates the spring binding and cartridge nose-diving common with standard box magazines in magnum calibers. Each cartridge rotates into perfect alignment with the chamber, creating smoother bolt cycling and more reliable feeding under field conditions. The polymer construction weighs 40% less than comparable steel magazines while maintaining structural integrity through temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F.
Key Features
- Rotary feeding system prevents cartridge binding and nose-diving
- Black polymer construction resists corrosion and reduces weight
- Designed specifically for 26 Nosler long-action X-Bolt rifles
- Drop-free release mechanism for quick magazine changes
- Reinforced feed lips prevent deformation under pressure
- Compatible with all X-Bolt long-action models
- Factory Browning specifications ensure perfect fit
Field testing demonstrates superior performance in hunting scenarios where follow-up shots matter most. The rotary mechanism maintains consistent feeding even when the rifle is canted at steep angles or operated rapidly during predator hunting. Temperature cycling tests show the polymer construction maintains flexibility in sub-freezing conditions while resisting expansion in desert heat.
