    Why AI?

    Other than wx, and blowing dust/sand in some areas, are PRS matches really a standard for hardship for rifles anymore? IMHO in the early years of PRS and especially before, I think they got knocked around pretty good. But barricade benchrest? My rifles and scopes would come back with scars...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Cool pics. It’s not hard to believe they’ve been working great that long without needing spare parts… except the barrel obviously. Are you saying that guy put 35k rounds on one barrel? And he can still hit targets with it?

    Secret Service Wants New Rifles

    As I said on another forum, a missing key requirement means 50% of their agents will be issued a bolt they can’t lift

    Powder IN-STOCK thread

    If you want to pay $200/k you might get some at Mahoneys in TN. They don’t ship though. I know they have 210m. Think they have some 215m too. They’re offering them at $30/100 if you just want to call and laugh at them.

    Why AI?

    I still have 2 or 3 of the Xtreme mod22 triggers. Most reliable trigger I’ve ever used and it’s survived a lot of matches where many others failed. Not sure what if anything AI did to change it, but I hope not much.

    Why AI?

    I’ve been looking for that thread. Got a link? Not weird. Just extreme to prove a more mundane point. It’s like torture tests that involve driving over a rifle with a truck. That doesn’t happen too often either but it still illustrates sturdiness. IMHO for 223, 6br and maybe up to 308...

    Another question… pretty sure there’s no anti seize on my axsr bbls. All my other actions use it. Should I add a little?

    Is lubing the neck really required?

    Don’t want to get in the purse swinging, but my experience is that it depends entirely on how much neck tension you have. In the decade before I got an AMP annealer, I would try to shoot with about .001 or .0015 of neck tension. Super light. I could easily get low single digit SD that way...

    AI guys: do you remove your bbl to clean or use a bore guide to keep crap out of action?

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    This. And also, instead of a shooting mat, especially if shooting mats are provided on the stage, roll out a red carpet to place your AI on before shooting. And bring some moist towelettes to cleanse any barricades before they touch your rifle. The ROs should do this for you but some of them...

    Zealot Rifle Chassis by KMW

    Sounds like a feature. Just put your short shorts on and do a YouTube demo of pinching a bad guy trying to flank you. Maybe offer a numbchucks buttstock option. Get the SS to confirm there’s safety factors. You’ll sell a million.

    Best cartridges for compact bolt actions? (SA or smaller)

    If you’re really bored take a 300blk and neck it down to 223.

    Best ballistic calculator currently?

    Fwiw I have used shooter ballistics which I think has litz math. It’s very fast and simple and good out to reasonable distances. I never wanted ballistics data in my kestrel because I also find that interface extremely annoying. I like to look at a range card like looking at a map. I want...

    Does or should a supressor change POI?

    I’d expect about 1-2 moa. On a heavy barrel with a custom action, more like .5-1moa. You can shoot with and without. Just make a note of the shift and dial it out.
