That’s a restricted colour that isn’t cleared for public discussion sir.
The color is internally called within AI HQ the
“Sage-Green-in-the-Closet.”
“Sage-Green-in-the-Closet.”
Anyone have an AT with a factory NV bridge able to measure the distance between the front of the action rail and the rear of the NV rail for me?
Does anyone have a picture of an elite sand rifle with a dark earth NightForce? Im curious how the two colors look together
Just an AI doing AI things. Upgraded with a Short Action Customs barrel. 308. 24". 10 twist Bartlein 5r.
As requested:
Day 1, start to finish. Picked it up from the local FFL on the way to my range, unpacked it and mounted the scope, cleaned the barrel, bore-sighted, zeroed, and worked it out from 100 to 1147 before stopping. Celebrated at home later.

Smart man! Power Strokes and AI’s always go hand in hand.
Happy to help. So what’s your opinion on the combination? My others are Sage Green with Basic Black S&B PMIIs. To be honest, they’re my favorite if I HAD to pick, but I really like this combination for some variety. It’s a close call.
Had a real good afternoon with the new scope, going out to 1,100.
The Nightforce color is totally different than every other color. I definitely like the way yours looks but with the other black accents on the AXSR I’m leaning towards basic black.
I agree that black is still the best look. Specifically a black S&B on a Sage Green AI is just the classic look, but since I have a couple of those I have enjoyed the change-up of the ES/FDE combination.
Does anyone have a picture of an elite sand rifle with a dark earth NightForce but with a bottle of Rare Breed?
Best I can do is Elite Sand with a black T1 micro and bottle of Buffalo Trace
Well I can live with the T1 micro but I’m afraid the Buffalo Trace is just too far off of what I’m looking for.
Best I can do is a black ZCO, the Rare Breed & a camo AT/AO. 
I feel like those would clash. But an E H Taylor would look great with the Camo.
I mean, I could…but isn’t “Bulleit” a better match for a rifle?
But, admittedly there just aren’t many pics out there of ES with the FDE NF mounted, so maybe you’re right - it is a Rare Breed. Do you Photoshop?
I
Lol jk
I kinda had my heart set on the non chill filtered travel exclusive Rare Breed, but thanks anyways I guess…I mean, I could…but isn’t “Bulleit” a better match for a rifle?

Lol jk
I have two bottles of it.......can't tell the difference in a blind with regular Rare Breed
Delicious all the same
That’s sexy. Once I swap to the cool kid calibers in 2025, I’m going to cut my 308 barrel and the AXSR rail down for a 14.5. Just for funsies.
I am. I just want to run through 2024 with my 308 at matches. After that, it’s all 65cm for 2025 PRS with it.
Once I cut the rail I’ll probably rattle can the whole thing. …which hopefully by that time I’m running a 735TT or 636SB (if they unfuck those reticles lol).
…which would require a bonus award at work…which isn’t going to happen if I keep making incompetent employees run to bathrooms to cry after I rip them to shreds in a team meeting.
Sheesh. Tough crowd. OK, I’ll give you what you originally asked for, but your subsequent demands are just a bit too exclusive.
It’s everything I imagined, and so much more. Thank you sir. You’ve completely made up my mind. I’m going to go with the Rare Breed.
I broke out the AI mug to celebrate as I had a quick but satisfying 100yd excursion in the MN snow yesterday. Two 6br 5rd groups, a 3rd’er and the place shut down for the night.
Used an old used target, so excuse the upper right group from some unknown rifle.
I was testing out different bipods and rear bags on my new AT.
