Anschutz 1727 APR

Hey gents,
If you are thinking of one of these in the future, you may want to act. I spoke with A.N.A. today. They are only getting 6 of these rifles out of the first production run. I got on the list for one so maybe 5 left. I inquired about the “Gas Pedal” which is the thumb assist lever on the bolt.
They are trying to get those shipped in too, and I have been told it’s a super easy installation. I want one for my 1727F in the ATX chassis.
I’d cancel my order if I could find someone that has the expertise to mill out the ATX for RimX mags. I think that would be great for my personal taste.

AXSR POI shift with caliber change.

Seems a little more extreme than some, but if the zero is repeatable it kinda is what it is. You could contact AINA to get their opinion, but if it's shooting well idk if it's worth it.

Document it and know for the future. I don't blindly swap my barrels, even if I probably could, without a zero confirm shot.
Yeah it's repeatable when removing and replacing the barrel. With no prior experience with this platform I was just hoping to get an idea whether this was normal or if it pointed to a possible problem since the swap between the AI .308 barrel and the AI 300 Norma were only about .2 different from one another. I already had to send the ZCO I bought in for service new out of the box so I'm just checking everything now.

Geisselles new SPR barrel with special gas system

Brah do you even shoot positional

Edit by enhanced I mean as a category. Larue LMT aero Vltor mono etc

Gotcha, I've probably got evey type of Upper you can think of, enhanced and standard.

The quality of the current product lines from Geissele has been absolutely phenomenal with exceptional accuracy.

At this point i don't see the need to build with enhanced uppers, when I do my initial break in I'll perform a POI shift test to see if moving to a enhanced is warranted.

The current GFR line is utilizing the traditional upper to handguard system and they are showing exceptional accuracy, so again do t see the need.

Here’s the thing- DOGE isn’t firing “unproductive” people. They’re firing as many people as they can with 0 thought behind it. Elon is just a really fucking weird dude who wants to remain relevant at all costs.
You’ll be next

AXSR POI shift with caliber change.

I see a tenth or two in zero shift when I swap different cartridges back and forth in my AT-X. It generally takes 1-2 rounds to verify and adjust zero. This is with taking the same barrel off, and then reinstalling it again a few months later.

When I swap cartridges (6GT to 6CM etc..), I think I'm .5 left/right, and .2 up/down off. 2.7 mils would be a little excessive between two AI barrels for me, even with different cartridges. However, if the accuracy is there and you aren't destroying the brass is it worth chasing down for you?

Same/different muzzle devices/suppressors?
Yeah I talked to Frank and a couple other people I know with these rifles and most said they don't usually see more than a few tenths between any of their AI barrels. 2.7 seemed like a lot to me. Yes, same muzzle devices and suppressor on all barrels. TBAC Ultra 338.

The ASR submissions had to hold something like 1MOA at 100 yards. so if you see guys getting.4 or .3 with AI parts, thats probaby your expectation. If you were using 100% ai parts I personally would expect .3 to .4 and maybe worst case of .4- .6 (2moa).

The wrinkle here is you are using Proof prefits, so I don't know why you would expect that to work?

I mean the barrel's performance at that stage is Proof's problem not AI's problem.

Proof is only going to guarantee it headspaces/meets saami spaec, is safe to shoot, and is accurate (at some level). They aren't going to guarantee their barrel meets additional performance specs, unless that's clearly stated somewhere in writing.

Do you have a different expectation here?
I said in the post it was an AI .338 Lapua barrel and it's 2.7 mil low. The AI .308 and AI 300 Norma barrels were within .2 of each other. The Proof barrel is what it is.
