If you have not sent the X Bolt into Browning yet, you might consider buying a decent stock you can finish yourself. I only say that because I absolutely hate the Browning poly finish, I remove it from ever shotgun and rifle I own then refinish them in oil. Everything and anything those poly stocks touch leaves a gray spot on the finish, looks like they have been left in the rain (water spots) after a while.

Oh, if you want to get the best results, accuracy and velocity from a WSM, try VN-560. It will get you that extra 100 fps normally missing from the WSM. There used to be a Short Mag forum on the net and I found and long thread about 560 on that thread. My 300 WSM 180 gr loads with 560 went with me to Africa.
