2nd post on Sniper's Hide, how is everybody doing?
Just got my AI AE Mk II from SRT Supply yesterday. Thanks a bunch to Chris and Ken for great customer service, also to Mark from 2A Sales in Jessup, MD for the smooth transfer. After a long wait was able to get her out to the range today.
Specs: .308 20 inch barrel w/ AI brake, Folding Stock, Nightforce NXS 3.5-15x50 on a Nightforce 20 MOA unimount.
My buddies 5r in an AICS is in the background.
While waiting for the range to go cold after sighting in at 50 yards
Included two groups from my range session, the numbers seem tighter than what I was expecting, if someone wants to double check them feel free, but definitely sub MOA and it definitely shoots better than I. All groups 5 rounds.
175 FGMM
175 SMK HPBT, 43.7 Varget, New Lapua Brass, CCI BR2, 2.800 OAL - 2 groups
I purchased this after lurking and reading a bunch about the AIs on Sniper's Hide, and man, the differences between this rifle and my two previous Remingtons are night and day. I always liked the ergonomics, but the action feels like butter, and the trigger's 2nd stage breaks like glass. I couldn't be happier, now just have to wait to get on the farm and stretch her out.
