Yep plastic mags on the new X-bolts. But they feel sturdy enough that I dont worry much about it. I am a big Browning guy. My first gun (A-bolt 280) is an absolute tac driver. Since that, I have bought an A-bolt 22 hornet & a 243 X-bolt medallion. All are very good shooters, and the Medallion is definitely a head turner. Im in the market for a 300, and the X-bolt Long range hunter is definitely in my top 3.

I really like my A-Bolt in .243. Fit and finish are excellent. The trigger is very good out of the box and the 60 degree bolt throw is a nice feature . The action is buttery smooth. It is very accurate with factory ammo if I do my part. I do not care for the detachable magazine setup with the hinged floorplate. I would prefer just a regular detachable magazine. I do not like the fact that you cannot work the bolt with the safety on.

I love shooting my .270 A-Bolt with BOSS using a solid 3-9x40 scope. It's a tack driver & I've shot 4 animals at 300+ yards with no issues. I like the 60 degree bolt & metal detachable clip.
My son's X-bolt 30-06 also shoots great. I can't say the polymer detachable clip is any better or worse than the metal.
But both are great products or quality & are durable products.
Both have crisp triggers.
