    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Shooting my AT in 6.5CM at 900yds Bisley, UK. Was using factory “Sako TRG Precision” ammo which uses a 136 Scenar-L. I have no idea what the scoring ring size is, but I shot a string of 10 ‘V’s with it, and that being the maximum possible it can’t be too bad.

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    My AT now has new glass; an ATACR 5-25x56F1 sat in NF Medium (1”) rings - I love it already, a great upgrade from the NXS. That meant the NXS that used to be on the AT is now at home on my HW60J .22LR (y)

    Anyone running an AT with the newer low profile rail, and a Nightforce ATACR 5-25x56 with NF 34mm Ultralite rings? Which ring height did you use?

    Rifle Scopes ATACR 4-16x50 or 5-25F1

    My main long range rifle at the moment is an AI AT with a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel. Mounted on this is a ~10yr old Nightforce NXS 3.5-15x50. I love this set up, whilst it’s only 15x mag I use it with great effect at 1000yds and a little beyond. I am thinking however, it has done me so well for so...

    Truing MV vs. BC

    I am just about to start using my new Kestrel elite 5700 in anger. Can I ask why people are trueing BCs when all the AB literature I can find just says use CDMs and don’t bother with trueing BC, only true the MV. Any thoughts? My 100m zero is spot on, I know it’s said that atmospherics are...

    AB Mobile Important Update (Release Version 2.0+)

    Sweet. I have been considering the AB iOS for a while to compliment my 5700Elite, but more for comparing data than for range use that the 5700 gets. Two questions though; How much are CDM on iOS? Are the Nightforce NP-R2 and/or MOAR reticles in there? thanks

    New Rifle & Brass Question

    I don't think it is from the protrusions of any brass that was exposed to higher pressure during load development - the marks are much wider than the area of the extractor during firing (the circle mark), it is also very uniform 'polishing' in appearance.

    New Rifle & Brass Question

    Thanks for the reply. They are not overpressure marks. I did get some during load development but then backed the charge way off. The marks are not even there after cleaning. They only appear when I chamber a fired, but cleaned case to check the bolt shuts on it ok. The mark isn't round. It...

    New Rifle & Brass Question

    After some advice, to what may be a silly question, but I have not come across it before! So my reloading experience has so far involved Tikka T3s in 223 and 308, reloading for both using Lapua Brass, and no problems on about 6 firings (223) and 10 (308). After firing a case I deprime, throw...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    It's very much as Servo93 says; My custom rifles are Tikka also, over time I have ended up changing an awful lot of the components on it to make it 'just right'. Whilst they were good rifles in the end, I was chasing something that I get from the AT as standard. Some confidence was also...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    My first Accuracy International, an AT on its first long range outing (900m). Very impressed so far, worlds apart from customised sporting rifles I have owned in the past, should have upgraded long ago! I'm still awaiting the AI Bipod, so my old Harris will have to do for now. And I've...

    Best torque tool for AI AT?

    I use Fix It Sticks for my AI AT. Adam at Sporting Services is your man for them. I bought the deluxe kit which has a nice pouch for my range bag and it includes the 49lb in for the AT barrel, and also 15, 25 and 65 which are perfect for my rings/bases. Very happy with the kit for my AT.

    Quick 140 Berger Hybrid Load - New Rifle...No Time.

    Thanks guys. Well, it was a new rifle and it took a little getting used to with the heavier AT trigger. So some of the group size may be down to the me, and also the fact that the rounds fired were the first through the barrel; I am expecting things to run in a bit over the next 100 rounds or...

    Quick 140 Berger Hybrid Load - New Rifle...No Time.

    Thanks for the replies! i have managed to get Monday afternoon off work, so will hit the range and do a quick OCW with the 140H. I will keep an eye on pressures as I have a few that are over the 41.5gr book max. I do consider that conservative though as Hornady are using the book max as their...

    Quick 140 Berger Hybrid Load - New Rifle...No Time.

    So I have just picked up a new 6.5 Creedmoor Accuracy International AT rifle - it looks good so far. I have a few rounds of factory Hornady 140 ELD-M ammunition to get the thing sighted in, but I need to quickly load 100 rounds for a shoot shortly afterwards, and I won't have time to properly...
