Just curious if anyone is using a Solus action with AW mags as I haven't seen it mentioned yet? Wondering how they are working and what your stock/chassis configuration is?

Have a couple of the Solus chassis on R700's, and using MDT AICS mags, so far, so good. Don't have any AW mags to try.

The Solus action is supposed to be cut to be able to run both AICS and AW mags.
 
You talking solus chassis/aw mag together, or solus action/aw mag together? Or maybe solus inside solus love orgy with aw mag inside the solus that's in a solus?

Calling everything the fn solus was a really gay idea Aero!
Solus action with AW mags. I’ve seen a few mention using the action with AICS magazines, but none with AW.
 
My CDG works in the ACC and Xylo. I’m curious about these Solus actions. Aero always has sales and I may just have to FAFO about one myself.
 
Solus runs smooth with 308 rounds out of AW mag in the Xylo.

Well, if you want to roll the Solus in the Xylo you can’t use the recoil lug clamp. The clamp I think is what makes a Xylo based rig so fucken precise!
You can get multiple sized wedge blocks for the lug clamp from ARC. I have had multiple actions locked in of various lug thickness.
 
I received a Solus action with gunsmith installed barrel recently and installed it into a MPA chassis. I tried an AW mag with 10 rounds and it seems to work fine. Before using it for more serious work I would recommend putting more rounds through it.
 
The AW mags run just fine in the Solus Chassis with some adjustment to the mag catch.

I cannot get the mags to reliably lock into my manners PRS TCS with their included bottom metal. They will lock in but they're EXTREMELY tight and I have to force the mag release to unlatch from the mag. The gun does however, feet. I could file the mag catch but...meh.
