Accuracy International AT-X

Rumor has it that having a blue AT-X with wood accents is considered a crime against AI purists.

Yep, sure is the Rifles Refined Vertical grip. Took a while to get but super nice and comfortable.

I have a question regarding my recently purchased AT-X in 6.5 Creedmore. For optics I am using a ZCO 840 scope with a 1.5 Spuhr mount. I took it to the range yesterday and and attempted to zero it. My plan was to get it on paper a 50 yards and do my final zero at 100. What surprised me, is that it took 10.5 mils on the turret in elevation to get it on paper at 50 yards and the shots were still low. I find this strange because by other gun, a MPA Hybrid Hunter with a 1.125 Spuhr mount and a Nightforce ATACR 7-35 took only 3.5 mils on the turret elevation to get the gun zeroed at 100 yards. I can't figure out why there is such a discrepancy between both rifles. Now I am wondering if there is a problem with the scope or the AT-X rifle or could the difference be normal due to being different rifles, height of mounts and/or different scopes.

Sounds like you are talking about your initial adjustment from when you received your scope??

Both of my ZCOs came out of the box with elevation "bottomed" out. My Nightforces have not come this way. You might just be comparing apples to oranges here.

Random question, 10.5mils on the turret from what point? Centered? Bottom? Top?

My guess is your NF started near center of the travel in the erector system vs the ZCO that comes pretty much bottomed out. It’s not unusual for a scope to require 10+ mils if it’s near the bottom of travel to zero.

This is normal. There is zero issue with the scope or rifle. As mentioned above, ZCO's come bottomed out for full range of travel. Zero the rifle, set the zero stop. You’re done. If you find your self needing more elevation than is provided with this set up, you will need to purchase a mount with 20moa in it which will give you another 6mil roughly of useable elevation from your 100yd zero.

Fwiw it took 8mil to zero my tangent for my 100yd zero with my BRA.
 
My first AI or quick barrel change setup. Getting so poi shifts. Its a 6.5cm barrel I had cut down to 18” to lighten it up as I have a TS Customs 6 dasher on the way for comps.

Shooting 140elds. Hornady brass. Been fired in chamber. Annealed with amp. Sized with sac modular. H4350 42.2g. Br2. Seated 0.020” off. Here was todays range session. Ive noticed it a few times. Scope is zco. In m brace torqued to 55 in/lbs.

Point of aim is blue. Last group moved right and down. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Anyone else see this. Im running TB Ultra 7. I made sure it was tight.

Looks like shooter to me

How are you putting the barrel on?

Well now I just need my chassis back from being cerakoted Elite Moss…and the master race will be complete….ATX + TT

Thanks @MOUNTIC for excellent customer service and a great deal.View attachment 8012794

So what, didn’t like the blue, then didn’t like your home cerakote, now it’s off for official cerakote?

Hated the blue. I liked my home Alumahyde ODG color, but the finish wasn’t durable. After 2 Team Matches in November the blue was starting to show. So off to get blasted and cerakoted a color similar to Alumahyde ODG.
 
It's a funny light-hearted video, how he tries to say guns shooting well at the start. It's a team AI gun so pretty sure it's bad primers, as if the rules state, has to wait in case it's a hang fire. I got a laugh out of it.

Any higher scope mount recommendations? Currently running a 1.5" mount and its not quite high enough even with cheek piece bottomed out and all the way right. I have big cheeks.

Looking for a 1.7" or so mount. I know badger makes one but its cantilever and may run into eye relief issues.

Have you considered the taller action rail?
