The FN Patrol Bolt Rifle XP (PBR XP) is a direct descendant of the SPR long-range precision rifle family, utilizing many of its features and built with unmatched craftsmanship. The specially designed FN/Hogue synthetic stock features an aluminum pillar full-length bedding block. Pillar bedding utilizes aluminum bosses embedded in the stock insert at the critical action mounting bolt locations. The aluminum pillar bedding enhances accuracy by providing rock-solid stability over the full length of the stock, thus minimizing shifts in point of impact due to external environmental factors like temperature or humidity.  XP models are chambered in .308 Win. / 7.62x51mm NATO caliber. XPs feature a cold rotary hammer-forged medium heavy fluted barrel with a four-groove, right-hand, 1 in 12" twist rate and recessed target-style muzzle crown. The XP is available with either a four-round removable box magazine. The XP is built on a Pre-'64 style bolt-action featuring Controlled Round Feeding, a massive external claw extractor, proven three position safety and a one-piece MIL-STD M1913 steel optics rail utilizing oversize 8-40 mounting screws.
