  • Just a quick demonstration on how to pull apart a Browning X-Bolt action using a bit of stainless steel welding filler rod.
    If you don't have access to something like this, you could also use a key ring with some string or some heavy gauge fishing string.
    I hope this is helpful to anyone wanting to strip down the action to clean and re-lube it.
    Thanks for watching, and please like and subscribe if this was helpful to you.

    Thank you. I was waiting for this video for a long time. I wanted to buy the X-bolt but didn't due to the fact that bolt disassembly is not recommended and I do want to be able to do it in case something goes wrong in the woods.

    I would pad the surface of the wire to guarantee I wasn't damaging the sear surface

    Great video. Does anyone know if there is a bolt disassembly tool that would work for a browning Xbolt? I tried this method but the shroud is twisted super tight and it requires significant force for the back of the firing pin to clear the bolt body.

      @charlesgarcia7004 I'm not sure if there is a tool for this, sorry.
      This method should work! You do need to pull back hard enough to allow the spring to collapse enough to allow the bolt to be undone, though!

    I was wondering how to do that!
    Any tips or methods on improving the trigger pull weight?
    I put in an aftermarket spring...it's still rather heavy.
    Thanks

      @misterlewgee8874 I no longer have the x-bolt, but I believe there is a trigger spring adjuster screw that you can adjust. The screw head has some sort of red resin covering it that you will need to pick out first.

      @@petersgq351c I've done that..with aftermarket lighter spring..still prob about 3 pounds.
      Thought I'd ask incase you knew about polishing the Sears....danger zone talk...ha... apparently they're chrome and polished already.
      Was thinking of selling it...but...I shot 2x 1 inch groups at 200byards.
      But for foxing...a lighter trigger would be good....I'm.wondeiing if the. Safety is still on while I'm squeezing
      I guess...I could pay a gunsmith...about $200 I recall
      Buy a timney and lose bolt lock. $500
      Or
      Destroy the frigger by trying to polish it....
      Again..
      Thanks.

    Does a dirty bolt cause lower velocity?

    • @petersgq351c
      @petersgq351c  Před 8 měsíci

      @eddielombera5862 It could cause a missfire, but I'm not sure about lower velocity.

    Does this method work on an A Bolt as well

    • @petersgq351c

      I haven't had an A bolt before, so I can't answer your questions sorry
