My local gunsmith said "When he tapped the factory bedding with a screwdriver it popped right out,plus contact with recoil lug was wrong. So he used acra glass ,but before applying it he drilled holes in multiple converging spots and forced bedding compound into into those holes to make sure it bonds to stock. So I shot it with same load as before 59.5grs of Re#25 behind Hornady 140gr ELD seated to book recommendation ADG brass and group just under a quarter at 100yds in field conditions. So now I have something to work with !
 
That's great news, glad you got it figured out. The sad thing is that something in that price range shouldn't need fixed to shoot straight.
 
I spoke to soon . Gunsmith made it deer rifle accurate. Magazine box pops out if action screws are to tight. That's garbage ,anyhow .I traded it away. Now I have a Bergara Premier Ridgeback ,it's an entirely different animal .

X Bolt is history . Scheels had a sell on Bergara Premier Ridgeback . This new rifle is a beautiful piece of engineering ,plus comes with a sub MOA guarantee .

Kermit That's what puzzled me,most Browning owners were happy,but the ones that weren't ( Me) had good reason to be discouraged .
