True. With the weight of the rifle with carbon barrel, 6 creed is about as much recoil as the rifle could realistically handle IMO while allowing you to spot your shots shooting from more unstable positions. That’s why I chose this caliber but I don’t shoot NRL hunter. But this rifle kills everything at the ranch just fine.
Not really, one brilliant dude here is already doing it @trophyhunter : changing AT bolt face to magnum, And it works ! I’m just not lucky enough to live in the US
300WSM Would be Epic !
Sounds like they do from the other thread. The issue is sourcing the bolts from what they said.
I’m in the minority but I love the blue and I think you should leave it. Or maybe just do some sponge Camo or something to let some of the blue breathe.
I could go either way on that…maybe I’m blue curious.
I’m running a 338-300wsm in my AX
….yes short action AX
For guys looking for a DE, I have just one left! Shoot me a PM. Can get it out the door today!

Ladder test without the actual target attached. Just the metal backdrop after 30 rounds. This is 2nd ladder of 5 shot groups of h4350. 135-Atips @ 100 meters. Lapua srp once fired. Nodes at 41.5 & 42.9. I’m trying to stay with a COAL of 2.819 as my ATX has a lot of throat room
Is that a beer coozie held with a rubber band for a scope chap? If so well played!

I didn't read all 80 pages, but I did use the search function and couldn't see the answer... But does the number in front of the AT on the serial number correspond to the manufacture year?
Objective side is perfect size for a coozies tight fit.

Its the 120mm version, not really a weights as it's aluminum, more of a system for wider/more stable footprint for a bag.
Ahh, didn’t catch that. Thanks for pointing that out. Kind of a bummer there’s not an option for a heavy boi there.Dependabilt SideTrak LightWeights: AI Keyslot (AT-X)

Agreed. I just purchased 2 of the internal and 4 external ai weights from euro.
Pretty sure the steel long ones are on the machines, just haven’t been added yet
The ATX chassis was on my list when they first started appearing. Now that they've dicked around, I kind of forgot they even had one in the works.

Okay am I being a little bitch? I had a back-order AT-X that I just picked up from my FFL. It shipped 7/2/22. When I got it the foam was retaped up with box tape, the butt pad was crusty white, the heavy trigger spring was installed, and it has a 21 AT serial number. The shop told me that their system ships out the oldest model first and that's why I got a 21. I've got a gen 1, and this is a gen 2 but I thought I was getting a 22 serial number. This on looks like it was their floor model and when their newest models came in, they sent me their old model and put the new new as their floor model. Sucks because I canceled my order from another vender and this morning, I confirmed with them and AI USA that all of their recent shipments were 22 serial numbers.
For those that use factory .308 ammo, does the AT-X have a brand or type it seems to like the best?

Thanks, but I’m looking for the 120mm (longer) steel weight. If you look at the pic that @hic28 posted, you’ll see the first weight closest to the magwell is longer than the others. I already have the ones you posted.Here are the steel ones. I have six and like them a lot. No affiliationDependabilt SideTrak Weights: AI Keyslot (AT-X)

Before we get into the serial number portion (who gives AF, it’s literally just an AT action). Only thing that would matter is, is it SFP, which it should be.
So you got a Gen2 chassis? Should have a screw behind the bolt shroud.
And that butt pad gets discolored, regardless
If it don't shoot federal gold medal match, there is something wrong with the barrel. Either the 168 or 175gr ammo.
That's how mine came also. I never paid attention to the SN though or cared. Since actions are made in England and imported and then put together with US parts I'd expect that process to take a long time as evident by AT-X timelines. Mine is a gen2.
With the AT-X, when changing barrels back and forth between 6.5CM and .308 (both factory barrels), how important is it to always check head spacing?
Um......as long you tighten the barrel down tight by hand or bump it up slightly with a wrench before torqing the action to the barrel, there will be no change as long you're using a consistent method every time.
The biggest issue I have had is that I shoot suppressed and if I don't follow the torque spec on the bolt to tighten the barrel, it will loosen the barrel when I unthread my suppressor... I think the spec is like 50 in lbs or so. (49 I just checked).
Additionally we just got a Dark Earth in the shop for sale if anyone is still looking for one:
