Thanks in advance.
I have an X bolt hunter in .30-06, and i love it. It's comfortable, light and accurate. The fact that the bolt is a low pull, it allowed me to use very low rings when mounting my scope which has been nice. Also the fact you can still open the bolt without having to take the safety off is a nice feature. I really like the trigger on it. Very little/no creep and it comes factory set at a 3.5 pound pull... which can easily be dropped down to a 3 pound pull. Some guys like lighter triggers than that... but i have found it to be excellent as is. If you have the money, i would very highly recommend you get the x bolt. If you have any more questions about it, feel free to send me a pm.
