    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Thanks for the in-depth answer, that's exactly what i'm looking to do to mine. Not looking to make it a sheep rifle, just more manageable for hunts in the foothills. 14-ish with optics would be perfect.

    That’s awesome! I have so many questions. What’s the weight at now? Is the Victor company forend lighter than the AI? Or did you pick that because it has the arca built in?

    Picked up the RRS plate and the AO thumb rest. Got out shooting today and DAMN that thumb rest is nice. I know I’m late to the party but @samb300 really nailed that one. Also got to shoot my bartlien 6.5 Creed barrel for the first time today and, as expected, it’s a hammer. If there’s any AI...

    I'm also super intrigued by the 7saw. I'll be interested to hear what you think of it!

    5 minutes on cleaning

    @orkan Is the CLR straight from the bottle or is it diluted?

    Opinion: Which is the best looking bolt gun and why?

    I can appreciate a beautiful bespoke English rifle with great walnut but I REALLY love a rifle that looks great and can take a beating without missing a step. And to me, that says nothing but Accuracy International. I’ve always like the AW/AE and AT’s with thumbhole stocks for that classic AI...

    Thanks! It’s called “the clutch” made by armageddon gear. Not sure if they make it anymore. It’s 2 bags that snap together to make a “gamechanger” kinda bag. Works pretty decent for someone who doesn’t want a dozen different bags.

    I hesitate to say the brand because I may be tarred and feathered for letting such a bipod touch an AI :ROFLMAO: It's a UTG over-bore bipod. I bought it because I wanted to try an over bore design like this to see if I like it before dropping the coin on a fortmier or an elite iron. I picked it...

    First shots with the AX today. Why they hell didn’t I buy one these sooner :) Definitely makes every other rifle I have seem less interesting all the sudden haha. Tested some 308 loads with Lapua brass, br2’s, 178eldm’s and CFE223. Varget and 4064 are my usual go-to’s but they haven’t been on...

    Introducing The Vision Chassis for R700, Tikka, Sako and Sig Actions

    I never would have sold my TRG-22 if this had been available. Seems like an incredibly well thought out design. But, now that I own an AI I’m really hoping to win that AO chassis!

    New rifle days are the best days! My new AX308 DE showed up today and I gotta say, what a rifle! Meets and exceeds every expectation. Everything except the comp trigger that it came with has some creep but i'm sure It just needs adjusting. Threw on my backup XRS2 H59 on with an ARC QD...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    I started reading this thread from page one to learn about AI’s inside and out because I wanted to sell my Desert Tech SRS-A1 to get an AT. I started with a TRG-22, sold it to try the SRS because I thought the bull pup looked awesome loved the compactness. Well! I made it to page 95 before I...

    Barrel Nut Systems for R700

    Sorry, mixing up terminology, I am talking about remage barrels on out of the box rem700 actions.

    Barrel Nut Systems for R700

    Ya I figured you wouldn’t want to mess with the threads. I just see a lot of factory rem 700 actions with remage barrels and I always wondered if they do any trueing work before hand. I’ve always been told that most of the mechanical accuracy is in the quality of the barrel and the chambering.
