@BurtG

If your asking because the one for sale in the px is interesting you just keep one thing in mind

The AX338 does not have the quickloc. So it’s not the quick barrel change with the Allen wrench.

We’ve all seen the hammer/wrench video but just so your aware

For $5k?

Yeah you won’t touch one of those for less than $7-$8k

In that case that AX338 is a decent deal. Just factor in the tools to change the barrel. Also check to see if they’re compatible with AXMC bolts.

Just in case you ever want a different caliber bolt or have an issue and want a spare bolt on hand. Same goes for the mags. Maybe they’re interchangeable I’m not sure

If I went back to a long action AI I’d sell a rifle just to cover the extra $3k it takes to get a decent AXMC setup.

Yeah but you’re comparing the discontinued elite sand models. Which is a great price if you pick one of those up right now. But normal pricing is over $11K

Many times the AXMC can be bought for around $8-$9k with 2-3 bolts, multiple barrels and mags.

My Tikka doesn't seem to like them, or if it does it's more sensitive to seating depth than I can be bothered dealing with.

73gr ELDs shoot mint though.

I threw together my first had loads back when I had the Poors1.0 (R700), and finally took them out.

This CTR doesn’t seem picky, at all. Idk much about seating depth, I just made sure they fed and chambered with a dummy round and did a ladder test

Gonna crank out some more in the 24-25grain range for my next outing to see how it does.

Speaking of ridiculous, a new TRG m10 is $11k+ after tax. And one can’t even get Arca all the way up to the magwell.

Agree.

I'm pretty sure each company (AI/Barrett/Sako/Steyr) is watching the other right now and seeing what they can get away with regarding pricing to the .mil and the civilian sectors.

Doesn't help that people are paying stupid money for clone rifles and military equivalent issued rifles. If it has "genuine" military parts...well then be prepared to double whatever the already outrageous cost already was. Not that it isn't a great hobby, but it is turning into the Barrett Jackson insane auction prices of firearms pretty quickly.

Dude, I bought an M24R (return stock, bottom metal, sights and scope base - with a new M24 barreled action from Rem. Defense) back in 2015 for a total of $2,100, then got the correct Leupold Mk4 10x (replaced the M3 Ultra) for another $1K.

It was going to be my knock-around critter killer here on the ranch...right up until I saw what they were fetching in 2019.

Just like I always wanted an M40A1, but can't justify the cost vs. performance. I say that after having purchased an original No. 4 Mk 1 (T) a few years back...so I'm probably just as guilty as some others.

Was the real Sage Green just the Elite Sand we met along the way? I'll be interested to take these out into the sun tomorrow to try and see more of a difference.

If you want to join my Red / Green Color Deficient Vision Club let me know.

The main benefit is that all of these different AI colors look the same so it lowers your FOMO level and therefore fattens your wallet.

But wouldn't that cause you to have to get more rifles?

Stan: *reaches in safe* "Hey, I'm going to shoot the brown AXSA today!"
Wife: *shakes head*
Stan: *slowly puts the rifle back, and places his hand on the next one while his wife is watching, waiting for her to nod*.

The used ones in px are a friggin steal

I mostly shot without it since the steel was invisible today. I was hoping the sun would hit the targets enough to warm them but no luck. I did hit the IPSC with the thermal by holding off from a tree almost like shooting en defilade

That's wildly cheap. Interested to see how well it performs.

I am definitely interested too. Although that's the same price of used or like new Impact4000 and Scott + Vortex team have been super supportive of the units and the Hide.

The name seems like a bit of a knock off from the Vortex as does the rough design. But if the foot print is smaller, it's durable, and has similar ranging capabilities with a street price of close to a grand, that's gonna be hard to beat. but again, Vortex warranty owns all.
