I disagree on the part if this statement about it not being as smooth as the SA. I happen to have both and the AXMC long action with the conversion kit is actually smoother than my SA AX....The long action/AXMC weighs more and it will never feel as smooth in SA converted mode as the standard AX SA. I also shoot mostly SA calibers so I couldn't justify the added drawbacks and price for the sake of the occasional 300 or 338 outing.
I went for the AXMC and ordered it with the .308 barrel with the intention to grow into the magnum calibres over time. It was a tough decision to justify the extra money over the SA but the deciding factor for me is that I have a 2 mile range recently opened within 85 miles of home. I also wanted to buy just one rifle and scope.
My rifle hasn't arrived yet, the other downside of the AXMC with a .308 barrel is that it's a factory order so it can take up to 22 weeks from putting a deposit down to delivery.
Anyway its arriving next Friday so will let you know what I think
Have you ordered an long-Action System?
You can not Update an AXMC in 308win to 300WM or 338LM. Only a downsize from a Magnum caliber to 308Win is possible.
I got the same set up, my rifle was put together back in 1999. Awesome shooter. The 1.0 stock are rare as hens teeth now, at least here in Oz.While not a full AI, I have dipped my toe into the AI game. BA needs paint removed, skins need to be repainted or replaced, and a few more 10 round mags wouldn't hurt. Have had the BA for a while now, got the chassis for a steal.
It supposedly came off a custom build done for a Marine Sniper that was later in life a Corpus Christi Swat sniper. Still researching that aspect, will let yall know. It came with a barreled action in VERY poor shape. The barrel is pitted beyond saving, but the E prefix action should be good with some TLC. I think I'm smelling an m40a5 build in its future....View attachment 6961100View attachment 6961101

Guys,
I have a post 2014 AI AX with .308 and 6.5CM barrels. Its a fantastic shooter and Im loving the rifle. Im even contemplating getting another one soon, maybe my ADD is too much. I have taken it on a couple of hunts, would love to shoot some competitions, and love a lazy range day when I can get away.
With so many options, accessories and attachments, what would be the top 10 to add to your AI AX? I think this may help out guys like me and the guys contemplating on getting into the AI game. Your thoughts?
Yeah the manual says "If the user wishes to continue a barrel break-in..."No, but they do outline one in the user manual
Has anybody done the stock swap on a pre 14 AX?
When I was talking to Mike at MHSA about his before buying my AT. He tole me he and Adam (a gunsmith at MHSA) talked about it and while possible, would be very cost prohibitive. I was waning to put thumbhole skins from a AT on a pre-14' AX.
Now a post-14' AX rear on a pre-14' AX should be just north of 1k. The part itself is 1k, plus whatever labor you're charged.
Sweet rig. What are you shooting out of that thing?
6.5 Creedmoor
.300 Norma Mag barrel from Proof just showed up this week.
Badass

Can’t wait to pick up my Pale Brown SA AX
Lol soon. Gotta move an RPR and an aimpoint micro T1. Almost there.When? Is the real question. It took me about a year to get mine. Now I’m in the process of off loading all my other rifles lol
What is the barrel length on your rifle? Is that 308 or 6.5? Which model is that?
