All except the .280 had sticky actions & required wresting with to cycle.
I am still a fan of the "Legendary" 700 action, currently printing 1/2" @ 100yrds
with my .300 & factory ammo.
What I've come to terms with is that printing tight groups on the bench
& hunting in the bush are two completely different ball games.
I'm leaning towards an XBolt because it's practical. Plain & simple.
Mainly for the rotary box mag, which is way more convienent than floor hinge plate. The 60 degree bolt raise is a bonus.
All preference, some guys drive Chevy some guys drive Dodge. They both get you from A to B. The Elks not gonnA know the difference. It's all what works best for your own personal preference.
Thank you for reviving this old thread. I heard the Huskemaw Blue Diamond scopes and Nosler Trophy Grade ammunition is the ticket for establishing 0.5" groups.
