This has actually happened to me several times. I only wish I could see the look on my face when it occurs…
Accuracy International AT-X
- Thread starter Peter Laurvick
- Start date
The RPR label was what someone thought it was in a blind bolt running test....
Some of the comments towards that “Ruger-X”
Ha, funny. But not exactly what was going through my mind at the time. It was more like how the hell do you not know the difference. I'm sure I had a very confused look on my face. I have gotten the same "is that a Savage?" When I am shooting my TRG, SSG3000, & various Vudoo builds. I'm pretty sure a lot of people are not aware there are other firearms manufacturers than Remington and Savage.
That particular rifle belongs to a Ruger employee. They are not allowed to shoot any other manufacturer's products.
The boss will never notice the difference!

20" and still have access to the wrench flats, but an 18" will fit if you don't mind it potentially being a pain to remove.
Here’s what an 18” looks like
Plenty of room for a can. Sticks out probably 1.5”. A 16.5” would be cutting it very close
Took the AT-XC out to 1000 this morning, easy button with the 6.5 Creedmoor but what a difference between a lot of factory Hornady 140 ELD-M's circa 2018 to the new/current (2024) lot fresh from the factory. Granted I shot three times as many from the new lot but man what a difference in ES and SD and the velocity was averaging a solid 40fps slower as well. I was dialing 9 mils of elevation at 1000 with the newer slower stuff and holding 1.6mils of wind for a steady 12-14mph crosswind.

Not sure how I never meandered over here. Had my ATX now for about a year and a half, coming from a 700 Clone was quite the change.
-Competition and coyotes with a 26" 6 Dasher from Hunts Long Range
-Deer and comps for fun with the shorty 6.5
I ordered mine with the 6.5 creed barrel with full intentions of cutting it down to 16". Immediately pulled the barrel and put the chassis in the bandsaw
Saw quite a few comments/questions about a 16" setup and you absolutely can do it.
Makes it look 10x better and more functional. No clue why they made the forend so damn long.

I think I like your bag rider better than the factory one I'm using. Mind sharing with me who made it? Thanks in advance.

Its from Sokek Solutions. We worked on making it for the ATX so it dimensionally works and fits well.
Yeah, WAYYY better than the AI one and not fucking ugly lol

I’ve only used the chassis version but either one should work.

I'm waiting on my AT-XC, and thinking about immediatly having the foreend dimpled for R-LOCK plates and then cut down before more ceracoat. For those of you who cut down the forend, how much did you cut off? I can't see wanting it much longer than I can reach from behind the gun for adjusting bipods in field matches; It will never be way out at the end the way I use a rifle.
It’s not already R lock dimpled ? Sheeit my RD15 came like that
I personally don't see the need for the dimpling but I can understand why some might. Black Canyon I've heard is the place to send for the front end chop job.
I don't understand how the AT-X was out for over three years and they failed to update the AT-XC chassis with easy features like thumb rest provisions, R-Lock, and adjustable magazine latch.
How long have you been following AI and their updates and thought processes on what the user wants ?
They are HK lite
Its a GrayOps CNC 12rd BR mag. I use the normal 6677 for my 6.5 barrel, but for the Dasher these Billet ones feed 200% better than the factory mags do with the 6.5 creed.
I cant wait until they start production in standard. They only have BR and GT at the moment.
I cut about 2" off. Basically just found a spot where I wouldnt have an open edge from a keyslot or bolt hole and cut it there.
I also need a 6 BR cal. barrel and a mag. as well. Do you know if Proof makes this caliber (carbon or steel)? I'm asking about Proof because I know a few importers here in Europe and it would be easier to purchase. Any recommendations are welcome, then I'll look for a way to get it in Europe.
Someone jump in here if I'm way off base, but I don't see any of the BR calibers offered in the pre-fit sections, steel or CF, for AI - Link for reference.
You could always just order the 6mm blank and have it chambered somewhere?
