The Browning X-Bolt Integrated Scope Mount System 12531 eliminates the need for separate bases and rings while providing a rock-solid mounting platform for optics. This burnt bronze Cerakote-finished system integrates directly with X-Bolt receivers for enhanced rigidity and repeatability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional two-piece scope mounting systems, this integrated design machines directly into the X-Bolt receiver during manufacturing. The one-piece construction eliminates potential flex points between separate bases and rings. Browning's engineering team designed this system to maintain zero through thousands of rounds while reducing overall mounting height by 0.2 inches compared to standard ring and base combinations.
Key Features
- Integrated one-piece design eliminates separate bases and rings
- Burnt bronze Cerakote finish provides corrosion resistance and reduced glare
- Compatible with 30mm scope tubes for modern optics
- Machined aluminum construction with precise tolerances
- Lower mounting height improves cheek weld consistency
- Torque specifications marked for proper installation
- Recoil lugs prevent scope movement under heavy recoil
Field testing demonstrates this mounting system maintains point of impact consistency through temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F. The integrated design proves particularly valuable for hunting rifles that experience transport vibration and thermal cycling. Competition shooters benefit from the enhanced rigidity during rapid-fire strings, while the lower profile improves balance for offhand shooting positions.
