Can someone point me in the right direction if I wanted to do a 33 or 37xc in my axsr. I’m running 338 Lapua now and reload but this cartridge looks intriguing, just can’t find where to buy barrel,dies etc. thanks
View attachment 7437739Here is the prototype bag rider, the machined one i made out of 7075, that works fantastic, the printed one( installed on rifle) will need some more mods for it to become viable, but I think I can get there and be able to provide an economical bag rider that functions well and is fairly durable, I will require test beds, (AKA volunteers to abuse the crap out of it to see how durable it will be be.) super light compared to the all Aluminum one.
spent few hours at 1200 today with the porotype mounted, even though it is not totally mechanically sound at this point,( hopefully the next print will be) the printed bag rider performed very well with no issues after 60 rounds of 338LM, amazing how well bag riders work over just using your fist to control elevation at the butt. Granted in a tac. sit. a shooter probably will not have a bag rider to use so its still good to learn to use what's available lol

Looks to be a Precision Underground 3 Plus.I had to do a quick double-take -- I know lots of people rock the 2 shot quiver, but it looks like you're running a 3 shot side quiver. Which brand is that and how does it hold up?
Awesome guys, keep it up!!!
Anyone running 37xc or 41xc in an any AI's yet?
six five Creed, I talk about it more over here - https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/straight-jacket-armory-ai-prefit.7030279/What caliber. I am also waiting for my 308 barrel from Nick.
That's what I liked about JP's design, it stands out from the norm and provides an extra round without being to bulky, we'll have to see how it holds up over time but so far I am really liking it as a backup. If it becomes a snag issue I can simply not load the 3rd round and it essentially holds the two just like the SAP version.I had to do a quick double-take -- I know lots of people rock the 2 shot quiver, but it looks like you're running a 3 shot side quiver.

WOW, a fluke or did you order it with that s/n? - p.s. never sell it - unless to me of courseAI AW (2006) with serial number 10000

I finally got my Frankenstein out this weekend:
-2014 AIAT
-LRI Bolt bushed for small firing pin treatment
-AX Buttstock
-Accuracy Obsession Chassis
-GTAC AR grip conversion
-ERGO Tactical Deluxe grip
-Area 419 Hellfire brake system
I’ve created a perfect setup to best suit my shooting types, I’m so comfortable behind it. Nothing beats an A.I, I’m so glad for the amazing companies listed above to help enhance the system.

I would like to know this as well. I’m interested in doing my axsr in the 37xc. Just need to gather up some info which this site has plenty of. Anyone know where do I start with barrel length/twist. David Tubb has some info on his website but nothing is really pertaining to the AI’s. Hoping someone has done it already to
learn from.
When you've shot pretty much every action out there you quickly realize why A.I boys love'em. Worth every penny to get comfort and stability out of the best action and magazine system on the planet. I'm a big fan of the AX stock as well, the quick change barrel system also doesn't suck. Did I mention the 60 degree bolt throw and butter fed mags... yummAverage shooters: "I'm trying to decide between this RPR and a Howa."
AI boys: "Lemme see how fast I can make this $4500 rifle cost $8000."
Lovely Elite Sand and Elite Iron!
FYI the Spuhr screws are specially coated with black Zinc-Nickel for corrosion resistance. The cap screws from bolts.com or any other bulk supply website are black oxide coated which is a much inferior coating for corrosion resistance. I understand the desire for using only one wrench, but when they inevitably start rusting you'll probably want to swap them back to the factory screws.View attachment 7440922
I haven’t seen it talked about in awhile, but while I had everything disassembled for my chassis conversion I swapped cross bolts out on my Spuhr. It’s a decent feature for A.I rifles because we always have a 4mm Allen on our person.
I called Mile High to get the specific size for my particular Spuhr, because there are 2 sizes, then I ordered the 4 bolts from bolt.com for less than $5 shipped.
Just wanted to bring the topic backup for some that haven’t thought about it.
Edit: I know it’s dirty, it’s always dirty![]()
Good point. There’s also the (cheap) solution of adhering to a PMCS schedule that can help extend the life of the 4mm replacement bolts. Although it is 2020 and I’d assume there’s a place you can order 4mm bolts from that are BZN coated...”assume” being the key wordFYI the Spuhr screws are specially coated with black Zinc-Nickel for corrosion resistance.

I guess when I replace the screws for my AO chassis if I leave them wet, I’ll do the Spuhr screw as well. Non issue for me in the Southwest, but I guess something for others to consider.FYI the Spuhr screws are specially coated with black Zinc-Nickel for corrosion resistance.

They're not easy to find...at least not for me. There are a couple places that will take black oxide fasteners, strip them, then coat with zinc-nickel. But it's really expensive, especially in small quantities. I'm sure a place like Spuhr machines their own screws and sends them in the raw to get coated. Or pays a supplier for them 100k at a time.Good point. There’s also the (cheap) solution of adhering to a PMCS schedule that can help extend the life of the 4mm replacement bolts.

Smaller 6mm options are out now as well as trophyhunter turning out wsm faced options
Then there's the .223 bolt face Frank leaked a while back from SHOT
Ok, did I miss something ? Last I knew Tropyhunter is doing .223 and WSM bolts for the AT/AX only (plus AI makes factory 300wm bolts for the AXMC...so no need there).....can you link the .223 bolt leak for the AXMC?
Thanks!
Jasent on has his 37xc thread on here, he chambered it himself and has done a great job sharing his knowledge, experience and lessons learned.
Here's the way I see it:
Axmc is a solid system (THE MOST solid multi cal system in my book
Available now is everything running off a .308 bolt face in any flavor you want
Smaller 6mm options are out now as well as trophyhunter turning out wsm faced options
.300wm, .338LM, and .300nm/.338NM is proven
.33xc provides even more juice
37xc and 41xc take the system to new distances which will allow someone to run 6cm to 41xc........essentially .375CT ......ALL IN ONE SYSTEM
Then there's the .223 bolt face Frank leaked a while back from Shot
Now someone just needs to bush/make a custom .22LR bolt and mags
End goal: .22LR to caliber nastier than .375CT out of ONE rifle![]()
Here’s something even better...Anyone have a line on a lefty AXMC? I had a posing in the lefty section as well, just thought I would put it here also. Thanks in advance and stay safe Tack
Let me know if you can drum up an extra $9k for me as wellAffirm Samb, but no ETA on the rifles when I contacted them this week. If I get an update on ETA of the rifles will let everyone know.
This is my dream gun. I just can’t talk myself into turning loose of the money. The more I look at this picture the closer I get.PSR in 338 configuration. Love the AI platform.![]()

Perfect way to wrap up the week. Family time, Jameo, a Training Sights’ package, and a box of AI goodies.
UK Sporting Services has an awesome CS team. Ordering process was easy, quick, and I think they had my stuff shipped same day. Hardest part was me telling my bank that I’m placing an order from another country lol.View attachment 7442086
As for the Training Sights, this is way better than what we used to do with overlay paper lol. Dude is a HOG and got these sent out to me so I can help the wife unfuck the peeps in her unit with their M17 proficiency (or lack thereof in some cases). The reticle ones are for my weekly zoom classes with my brother and a buddy to help them unfuck themselves as best I can lol. 1,000% worth checking out and ordering a set of you ever take someone else with you to the range or have friends/family/teammates that you want to train up.

Fun Fact: I had just hit send on an email telling them I never received my package (because B Post is an absolute shit show #IfYouThoughtUSPSWasBad #BPostWishesTheyWereAsEfficientAsUSPS) when the neighbor’s kid knocked on the door and handed me my box-o-goodies.
$525Lol what you want for one of those ai patches?
That’s the going rate on FB. This is SH, so he’s getting the hook up.$640...it's an AI
Actually, I have noticed the newer tactical deluxe grip is not near as vertical as they used to be. I returned 2 of them this summer they felt so bad. Ergo has been f'ing up the design constantly for the last ten years. The best one they made was about ten years ago but they keep tweaking it thinking it's better. I had to change grips entirely on myI’d highly recommend the ergo tactical deluxe. They make it in flat top and regular. It’s what on the AXSR. It’s thicker and far more vertical than the regular ergo you’ve got there
