The XS Skeet configuration centers on fast, repeatable target acquisition. Its ventilated flat target rib pairs with a green fiber-optic front bead and white mid-bead to provide a clear sight picture. The ported 28 inch blued barrels help manage muzzle movement, and the 2 3/4 inch chambers suit a wide range of target loads.
The receiver is finished in silver and factory engraved with scrollwork, framed by gold border lines and highlighted by gold Browning Buckmark logos. Controls include a top-tang safety with barrel selector and a single selective trigger. The walnut stock features a checkered pistol grip, a beavertail forend, and a black recoil pad, with a 14.0 inch length of pull.
