View thread Contact supportSerious question, what is PX?Thanks to multiple great deals on the PX, I am now the proud owner of an '14 AI AT in Sage Green, just the way God intended. The last 376 pages of this thread have been my guide to enlightenment (and madness) that I am now happy to contribute to.

Great shooting! Congrats.Beautiful day for a KYL match. Only dropped 3 shots, cleaned the 1260 yard rack, and dropped one at the 1185 yard rack. Ended up winning the match with some of the best shooters in the North East there. View attachment 8421746View attachment 8421747View attachment 8421748
Anyone have a line on the cleaning kit in the ASR deployment kit? Or even just the boreguide.

Is the knife from the pack acting as your rest?
Short Action Customs does all my work.Great shooting! Congrats.
You know, it would be sick to get your weights out front Cerakoted to match your camo pattern.
Love that camo btw. Who did it?
Needs more rattle can.6-month evolution of my lovely money-pit.
Next up is a S&B and then that should suffice

I hear Bergara is just as good.Not 100% yet
It's a 1/9. I do have some 230 A-Tips I can try.If your barrel is 1/8 you should try the 245 lrht for long range
Did you have the action and hinge cerakoted black or did it come that way from AI? I think it looks great, sort of like a supersized AT-XC.Managed to sneak out and take the new 6CM barrel for a run this afternoon. I’m thinking it needs a shorty .308 barrel next.

All this rattle-can talk makes me half nervous to admit that I like the new two-tone cerakote look… please don’t bully me…
Thanks, I think it turned out pretty good, too.Did you have the action and hinge cerakoted black or did it come that way from AI? I think it looks great, sort of like a supersized AT-XC.
1/9 is fine for the 245s alsoIt's a 1/9. I do have some 230 A-Tips I can try.

What in the Ryobi F am I looking at???
Which pump did you buy? I need an upgrade from the riflekuhl as it takes forever with a suppressed 30 cal.It's actually AI's new PCP air rifle in that picture, and he's recharging the air cylinder after the pressure dropped too low after the last shot string. However, in keeping with British tradition when it comes to electrical component reliability, the AI branded UK built air pump that comes with the rifle already let the magic smoke out, so he had to replace the UK air pump with the Ryobi.
On a more serious note, he's just using the Ryobi inflator as a barrel cooler. I do something similar but use a compact rechargeable air mattress inflator. It's much smaller than the Ryobi but cranks out way more air than a chamber chiller or riflekuhl, runs about 40 minutes on a charge. I also don't like the possibility of forcing dirty air down my barrel if say a big cloud of dust gets kicked up and sucked into the inflator inlet, so I use a CPAP filter inline with the hose. Works quite well on hot days, but obviously not as well as a cool damp towel wrapped around the barrel.

Kidding aside, not a bad idea![]()
As Kiba said Ryobi makes this inflator tool which is cheapo at depot. After that take some vinyl tubing and cut up a case, jam the neck end of the case into one end of the tube (I used a Creedmoor necked to 7mm just 'cause.) And then cut a small ring out of the center of the case and jam that into the other end of the tube once it's fed through the Ryobi inflator thing end cap. This setup has gained some popularity around here and another shooter showed me how they threw it together so I always pass along the tip:What in the Ryobi F am I looking at???
Fyi I found out that cheap clear vinyl tubing (or whatever it is) stiffens up like a mo fo in cold weather. Becomes totally useless.
And yeah, the barrel cools faster in cold weather than in hot. But it cools even quicker aided by my Ryobi.
I need to source something else. Silicone? Any ideas? Looks like @Kiba used silicone…and where did you guys get your little filter apparatus’s?
Thx man!I actually used vinyl because I had a bunch of it on hand.
Silicone remains much more flexible than vinyl in the cold, but some grades of silicone tubing are so soft they kink very easily, so stay away from the really low durometer stuff.
The CPAP filter and adapters are from Amazon... here's what I used:
