I got a chance to shoot an AT.

3 rounds of 308 FGMM at 100m. I stopped shooting at three because I didn't want to screw it up.

 

[Movistar]

Took my father in law to shoot his new AR15. I brought the ASR along with me. 20mph cross wind. I know it’s not a huge distance but I dialed for him and he got a cold bore first round hit on the plate at 400. 6CM berger 105. His first time shooting anything more than 50 yards. The smile was real. Got to love it.

“I gotta get one of these”

They weight like you see it in the pictures is 15.1 lbs (no mag). Again it’s still not super light but with the barrel weight and switching from the NF from the Gen 2 razor it was a 19.8 lbs rifle before. The short barrel makes it handle a whole lot different. When it gets out in the sneaky bag as a truck gun the tripod comes along and I leave the bipod in the bag which makes its 14.1 lbs. The choice for the rail is a complicated answer lol. I traded of my original 12” for a 16” AXMC forend. When going light I weighed the options the best I could with the RRS arca plate with the factory rail or the Victor rail with factory plate in front of the mag well. Lightest option in total was factory 12” with factory plate. Adding a hog saddle or something similar to the tripod to save 2 oz wasn’t really on option for me. The difference of the factory AI rail with RRS plate and the victor company rail with the factory plate was pretty much a wash. Once all the crops come off around here I’m going to play around the the rifle on the tripod all the way back on the victor rail vs RRS plate. The factory AI plastic guard/plate is 3oz lighter than the RRS plate so if I switch that out now we’re talking carrying weight of under 14 lbs and probably pushing 13.5 if I got real crazy and took off the buttstock “hook” and rail it attaches to lol. Again still heavier than most “truck guns” but now it’ll get picked a lot more often to come out and play and still be able to get hits at 800-1000 (about max for any range or field around here). Plus I can throw the 24” AI barrel back on it and it still can be the heavy ass laser rifle it wants to be.

Thanks for the in-depth answer, that's exactly what i'm looking to do to mine. Not looking to make it a sheep rifle, just more manageable for hunts in the foothills. 14-ish with optics would be perfect.

Definitely doable if you’re willing to go short on barrel length.

I think I’m going to go medium length and carbon

 

[trob_205]

I think I’m going to go medium length and carbon

Hell yeah! I’m not in the same financial situation as I was when I bought the rifle because I really wanted a 16.5” carbon lol

The weight difference in a 16.5" carbon and steel is basically nada...carbon shines at longer lengths vs steel

How much does that atx weigh as it sits in the pic?

 

[deersniper]

How much does that atx weigh as it sits in the pic?

Without can, 17.4 pounds according to bathroom scale

Axsa weighs 18.0 pounds with no bipod but including 338 ultra and cover , no mag

Think the atx has a fat barrel

Proof 26" 300 winmag barrel and a PVS27 delivered on the same day

@BLKWLFK9 looks great with the black scope, too. I've been using my trusty Gen2 Razor for like 6 years now, but I'd love it if it was black.

Spray paint it that’s what I did although not black

 

[BuLLet]

Are you really shooting that S&B stuff in your AI? That is brave.

Ya that range is only 820 so I shoot the cheap stuff

Sunday is always a 1,000y day at the Quantico Shooting Club! I quickly installed the Triggercam this morning with the intent to fire a few 225s and 212s to get some video. Dumbass operator shot the video with his glasses on, soooooooo, it's a bit out of focus. I'll look it over to see if any is worth posting and hopefully I'll get it right next time.

AI in 300 PRC

I'm bringing a T-Mobile puck with me now to create a hotspot since there is basically no Verizon service at the range. Not a bad deal, 50GB for $50 a month. The shooting mat is covered in debris from the muzzle blast since public works cut the firing line for the PRS centerfire match yesterday.

I've always used a cheap Amazon temperature strip to monitor the barrel temps when shooting strings. Here it is after the 10rds I shot.

Obligatory target pic with a couple windage misses.

If you are referring to the LEO signoff...that's been removed from NFA requirements now, for exactly that issue.

I wish Ai made a .22lr so we could have a deer pic at both extremes lol

 

[jbuck88]

320yds. 285gr ELD-M. Decided on the head shot since he was bedded down and would have taken out both the front shoulder and into the guts if I went heart/lungs.

To be fair I missed the eye by 1/2" was looking to my left. So bullet passed thru the brain and out the neck under the antler.

Early morning practice session with the 6.5 and a great sunrise this morning. Hoping to snag whitetail and an elk with this setup next week.

Always good to meet a fellow sophisticate. I shot an antelope with a 300NM last year at about 375 and it was everything I hoped it would be.

My out of focus TriggerCam video from the 300 PRC AXMC with NF ATACR 7-35 @1,000y this weekend. I made the mistake of focusing the darn thing with my glasses on, so it was guaranteed to be OOF. The TC attaches to the NF's ocular ring so you also have to get the cant correct and if it moves during firing, the reticle will appear to be canted.



Here's one from last year using my AX in 260 @ 1,000 with a Tacticam. I slapped it on and while in focus, it was a bit off cant. This was a February day that was cold, but with some good mirage.

It's amazing how confidence inspiring that AI is. Wind was gusting 25mph+ and raining cats and dogs. He said the vapor trail was awesome and hit with a thud.

You knocked his ass end backwards

Split it in two and made my kid pack out half.

It’s a damn nice scope man. I found it much nicer to look through than the mark 5’s and razor Gen ii’s. It’s up there with kahles for less money lol

The only thing I found is that the eye box is a bit tight no matter the magnification, and the parallax knob is tight. But the parallax itself is pretty forgiving. Mainly set it and forget it past 400yds. The reticle is also nice.

Oh. And they’re pretty heavy lol that was the first thing I noticed when I picked it up from @M4guru. maybe not Gen II heavy, but for being a shorter scope, she’s stout
