Not your grandpa’s 22. But it looks a bit like it. The walnut is beautiful and the engraving very nice. The cut checkering quite sharp. But it is the octagon barrel that sets this 22 rifle apart. Its name says FLD, which means Full Line Dealer. It’s important to know because they are only available through a select group of Browning dealers. Use the dealer locator to find one near you. Beautiful Grade II walnut and classic octagon barrel. Engraved silver nitride finished receiver, sharply checkered stock and forearm.
Features:
- The highlight of the BL-22 is the short 33-degree lever throw that makes cycling faster for adults and easier for younger shooters
- The easy to load tubular magazine holds any combination of 22 short, long and long rifle ammunition, all of which are on the menu for the BL-22
- Unlike some 22’s the BL-22 features quality that rivals other Browning firearms

1 year agoI have used this gun for a year now, its a 270WSM, with my hand-loads it will shoot dime size groups constantly. Magazine works well, no jams or hang ups there. I believe many more elk will drop to this fine rifle.

1 year agoBought the 7mm 3 years ago. Not only one of the best looking gun's I have ever seen, but it also shoots tight grouping, and is deadly accurate with a good quality scope.

1 year agoI own a number of older Browning A-Bolt and BAR rifles. However, I was shocked to discover that my new Browning X-Bolt Medallion White Gold contained a PLASTIC magazine. Browning should be ashamed to be marketing a high end product containing plastic parts. I do not recommend.

1 year agoI bought this last year in 30-06. Very light, handles great, perfect balance, very accurate. Shot a 1500 pound bull moose, 165 grain bullet, with a single shot.

1 year agoI purchased my Browning X-bolt white gold in 300 WSM from Cabela's approximately a month ago, and I am extremely impressed with the performance and aesthetics of the rifle. Browning really paid attention to every detail on this firearm. From the engraving on the receiver, to the perfectly polished stainless, to the choice flame walnut stock, this rifle really is a thing of beauty. After my first trip to the range, I had the rifle dialed in to shooting 1" groups at 100 yards with ease. The trigger feels great, and I don't see any need for upgrading the trigger in the future. The recoil pad is excellent, and I was able to shoot a couple boxes of Federal premium 300 WSM ammunition (180 grain trophy bonded tip bullets) without any soreness the next day. The plastic rotary magazine is durable, impervious to corrosion, the ammunition goes in and comes out with ease, and there are no sharp corners which collect lint if carried in your pocket. I topped the rifle with a Zeiss Conquest HD5 2-10 x 42mm scope, and couldn't be happier with the setup. The rifle is relatively light, it shoots well, the ergonomics are great, and it is a breeze to shoulder up and find the sweet spot for swift target acquisition. This rifle will be used for hunting whitetail deer, black bear, and moose, and for showing off to the boys at the deer camp. This certainly isn't your typical beater hunting rifle, but I have lots of other rifles which will be used when thrashing through the bush. Overall, if you want a great shooting rifle that is very attractive and offers great pride of ownership, the Browning X-bolt white gold is an excellent choice.

1 year agoBought this rifle in 300 WM November 11th 2015 online . Shot at a bear running at me 1 shot in the head . shoots 1" groups at 200 yds . This is the only rifle I will ever need polished stainless will not rust like the newer bead blasted stainless. Best looking rifle at camp no doubt ! The magazine is Polymer a lot tougher than plastic.

1 year agoThis is my second Browning rifle. The first Browning I purchased was in 2001 and had major ejection and feeding issues. I got very little help correcting the issues (from both my local dealer and browing). After that I stayed away from Browning until this fall. My wife really liked the look of this gun and it fit her really well so I got it for her to take whitetail deer and black bear this fall. So far I have been far more impressed with this gun as opposed to my first Browning. The feeding is good and ejection has no issues. The stock is beautiful, but I suspect is easy to damage due to the soft feel of the wood. The caliber is .308 win and it have been a lot of fun to shoot thus far. Looking forward to her making great memories with this rifle.

1 year agoI purchased this rifle about 3 years ago as my first ever rifle, and it is as deadly as it is gorgeous! Of course I matched the silver with a silver leupold vx-2 and rings. I purchased the rifle in a 270 WSM and it is an excellent rifle for all sorts of distances, with hardly any kick. Though the stock is soft and scuffs quite easily, it still keeps its good looks! And as a lady shooter this gun is light and feels great to shoulder.

1 year agoThis is a fantastic rifle from Browning and every component works with a crisp, clean action. Finish is beautiful and a classic style and look that will last decades.

1 year agoI have a Browning XBolt White Gold Medalion. After many years of chasing high grade rifles that were great hunting rifles, my last one was this rifle. There are so many features on the rifle that are fantastic. Do not get me wrong, I own half a dozen .Model 70s, two lovely .model 700s although those are older.... This was my second XBolt. The first was a Maple Medalion! It was so good I tried a XBolt White Gold Medalion 308 fur a couple of weeks when I was engaged to photograph it as a pro. The ONE thing I would like to get is a less high gloss stock. The plastic rotary magazine which has been maligned is actually very useful. I kind of like the .model 70 floor plate but this lightens the rifle makes fasterbreloading great, and it works. Lastly, these rifles are capable of astonishing accuracy. I have taught sniper training. The White Gold Medalion is a feature packed beauty. Don't let that Stainless beautiful,barrel fool you, this is one tough rifle. I'd far rather have this than a synthetic stock. Do not take this wood stock as a safe queen. Yes, keep it beautiful, but it can .HUNT!

1 year agoI bought this rifle for my Son in a 7mm. I love the way this gun feels and once dialed in, is really accurate. Great gun !

1 year agoBought this nearly 2 years ago in 338 Win mag. Mounted a Vortex Crossfire 3-12x56 on it and boy does it perform. Sighted in the day after buying it and it's been dead on accurate since. My rifle preferred the Federal nosler partitions in 225 grain, drops animal quickly and efficiently. Everybody who has seen my gun always comments on the polished wood and how beautiful this gun is.

1 year agoI had the XB Gold Medallion in 270WSM. Deadly accurate and beautiful rifle. Maybe too beautiful... It didn't take me long to scuff-up the stock when out hunting. Breaks your heart to see the gorgeous wood get scuffed-up. This is more of a range/collector rifle than a workhorse IMO. The controls and magazine are the absolute best design of any bolt rifle, and the palm swell, monte carlo cheek rise and oval forend in the stock make it the most comfortable rifle I've ever held (I've owned or held most). The other versions of this rifle don't have the same style stock. However the 270WSM cartridge would hang-up if it was fed into the chamber too quickly. If the round was fed in slowly then there wasn't a problem. I ended up trading this rifle for a Benelli R1 in 3006 because of ammo costs, the feeding issue (WSM's are the problem), how much more abuse the R1 can take without showing it, and the stock on the XB would have been destroyed within 5 years with the way I abuse rifles.

1 year agoI bought this gun in a .300win , after one year of use the stock was completely scratched, the gun would jam over and over again. Totally unreliable. Sold the gun a year later and bought a sako 85 in the same caliber. Don’t make my mistake and don’t be cheap spend the money and buy quickly

1 year agoFor a Grade II Browning at this price my .22 has an unacceptable stock finish. The grip has almost no finish on it and has runs where it is finished. Very poor quality control. Look the gun over before you sign for it.
