[Mr. F]

1. I shot the last match without it. Ended up top Tac and 7th out of 62. so while savage, it was acceptable. …except when I broke the seal on my sordins.
2. That’s a holiday inn express ma’am.

Probably the only tac at the match. Lets get real here.

Hahahaha excuse me ma’am, but there were 5 of us . I should have also identified as female cause there were none.

Well, not a bad culmination after months of waiting. New TT735 and SR delivered within a couple days of each other.

First time with hands on this thing and it is immediately apparent that it’s playing in a different league than the AT-X.

Now, to start the barrel collection…

I’d argue 2 separate rings would offer more support for the scope. Versus a cantilever mount made for an AR

Shit a mag mount would be the best option

Sir, we already have the #382 ranked guy in competition telling us how we do it all wrong.

We don't need the #383 ranked guy too.

Way to shoot insults at people trying to help you

I shoot an AI. If I was ranked it would be much higher than 300

A lot of AI shooters where I come from.

Just picked this up cause holding wind is for posers

Most of your posts are quite subjective and I would lean towards garbage and useless posts. This leads me to believe you're trying to increase your post count to seem more trustworthy to an unsuspecting person to scam them, or you honestly do not actually have a lot of experience and are over-compensating. Either way, of the 42 posts, there were maybe 2 "constructive" posts, the rest were attacking other members and degrading their purchases.

I get it, we all joke about "the poors" (not just the AI thread), but your unsolicited advice it just that, unsolicited.

Also, you can quote multiple posts at the same time and not reply individually just to increase your post count. Food for thought.

I’ll see your rings and raise you double UltraMounts.

 

[carbonbased]

Arc is great also but adding their Raptar mount is like putting a ring on a woman

I know Mr. Burt is taking a vaca rn, but what exactly is he referring to here?

 

[hafejd30]

It is ironic how Burt gets banned. At the same time we’re graced with a brand new guy who definitely knows his way around the site

It could be DBD. He has said how he shoots with many AI shooters in the past. However he would already be offering up secrets to achieving prs greatness from a room likely littered with participation trophies

But it can’t be DBD cause they’re currently sharing cutting edge knowledge in the mount an AR to your mower thread

I agree it’s time for an upgrade. I’ve had this tripod since before RRS or all the new carbon fiber tripods even existed

There’s a write up in the armory about how much more stable RRS are. Is the reason I said that

If I didn’t already have RRS, I’d buy this

SOLD - WTS-PVA Tripod with RRS Anvil

WTS - PVA Comp-40 tripod with RRS bowl Anvil. This setup is heavily used, matches, rain, etc, and shows. Not splitting the tripod and head. Sold

I bet if you offer $450 he will counter at $500

Hell of a deal but I need to stop accumulating

Here’s the post with the long post about accuracy improvement

Tripods and accuracy

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn’t immediately find an answer. I’ve got a solid tripod for my spotting scope and have seen plenty of PRS type shooting from tripods. Considering an RRS anvil 30 and ARCA mount for a bolt action. Presuming good fundamentals and plenty of...

Brand new Glowie. Insulting of most members in general, and Jews in particular.

 

[B52engmech]

Do you have to trim this bolt to the correct length when installing the thumb hole plastic? It's the shortest one that came with the little kit but no instructions.

Email ai na, they’ll send you the right one. Seems like they do that on every kit for some reason.

They pretty quick about it? Or your typical 1 to 2 days before a response.

 

[Bacarrat]

I would measure what size you need and order from

Accuracy International - M6 Screws

For butt spacers. Available in various lengths to accommodate different spacer configurations (example configurations shown). Price is per screw. Self colour black finish. * Longer screws may not have full length thread.

www.sportingservices.co.uk

or McMaster Carr would have them too.

That's what I did when I was missing 1 bolt for my AW skin.

Sporting Services UK takes about a week to get in. I just had to order several other small parts from them last week.

 

[bfk4lyfe]

I can’t honestly remember but I feel like it was pretty quick, at least it doesn’t stand out in my mind as a negative experience. Guess you could always call them too.

 

[FUNCTIONAL]

Or just trim it and if you ever want to go back to the old skins just let this be future you's problem?

I think thats what I'm gonna do. Got a hack saw and a disc sander I'll fix it real quick. It's a 25 cent bolt.

 

[JayjayUK]

This week I took delivery of a Maven RS.4

I know i'll be called a hethen because its not S&B, NF or ZCO but ive got it on loan and I must say I'm rather impressed given its price point and compactness.

I'll be into a AO/Vision Chassis soon

 

[austino775]

The last two months have been a lot of work moving from Las Vegas to Dallas, but i'm getting settled in and finally got my AT out of it's burrow for the first time since being here. lol

I've got an odd noise that the camera picks up after every shot with my AI? Anyone know what it is?

That would be the target moaning when you nail it... Get used to it, that's normal.

Had an absolute blast running another match with this thing, first go with the TBAC as well!

 

[JackBeNimble]

Cry for help to my UK peers - I'm looking to convert an AI coopermatch Palma-Master to take a magazine and need a AI short action chassis to put it into, I know the Accuracy obsession Vision chassis would work but at £1800 that's a bit rich for my blood. Any short action should be compatible AW, AT, or ATX I'm told.

I'm hoping someone has a line on one or perhaps has one left over from a Vision upgrade they'd be willing to let go of.
I've spoken to Valkyrie Rifles, JR firearms, Bradley Arms, Sporting services, who can't help, as well as Dolphin, and R and F sporting supplies about a custom chassis without success.

Does this action have the same footprint as the AT/AW/AX308? If so, and you know it’ll fit the current chassis design, your best bet is probably a WTB ad in the PX to see if you can find someone in the UK who has converted to the AO/V chassis and has the old AI chassis laying around.

There have been quite a few over the past years from people who have upgraded, but I’m not sure on the ability to ship a chassis from the US to the UK without an importer.

 

[clubsportmark]

Aren’t these single shot / single feed? Ie can’t be converted to magazine….?

 

[JackBeNimble]

They are but they're pretty easy to machine out and then you're off to the races assuming you can find an action to put it in.

Jack from JR rifles has done a few as below

That was the hope by posting here too, my thought was that people were more likely to see it here even if they weren't actively looking to sell. I don't know what the import rules are either so fingers crossed I'll find someone local

Anything is possible with a 7th axis CNC and a welder.

Personally, I would just leave it as is.

 

[clubsportmark]

Excellent. Well if it can be done, Jack is a man to do it. I had a McMillan stock in-letted by him. His attention to detail is seldom seen anymore.

I’m undecided if it’s sacrilege or not doing it to the coopermatch. But who’s anyone to say!

Good luck with the project.

 

[Josch13579]

Best of luck with that project that'll be nice rig! I'll also be searching for a AT-X or vision over the off season as well. Just hard to beat the modularity of those two. I enjoy the AX, but the balance point closer to the barrel is much more appealing.

I completely agree, but I don't know what's worse: taking the knife to a perfectly functional piece of art and history or leaving it to gather dust and become obsolete.

The action is like greased glass and its in fantastic shape - it'd be a shame if it wasn't used!
