The Browning X-Bolt Integrated Scope Mount System eliminates the traditional two-piece base setup with a precision-machined one-piece aluminum rail. This direct-mount system provides enhanced rigidity and improved scope alignment for X-Bolt rifle platforms.
What Makes This Different
Unlike conventional scope bases that require separate front and rear mounts, this integrated system machines the entire rail from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum. The continuous rail surface eliminates potential flex points between separate bases. Each mount undergoes CNC machining to maintain tolerances within 0.001 inches, ensuring consistent scope positioning across temperature variations.
Key Features
- One-piece aluminum construction eliminates flex between separate mount points
- Matte black anodized finish resists corrosion and reduces glare
- Direct integration with X-Bolt receiver maintains low profile
- Precision-machined Picatinny rail accepts standard 30mm and 1-inch rings
- Torque specifications marked for consistent installation
- CNC-machined surfaces ensure repeatable scope mounting
- Compatible with all X-Bolt rifle configurations
Field performance benefits from the rigid mounting platform that maintains zero through extended shooting sessions. The integrated design reduces overall scope height compared to traditional ring and base combinations. Hunters appreciate the low-profile configuration that reduces snag potential in dense cover. Competition shooters rely on the consistent return-to-zero capability when removing and reinstalling optics.
