No.Nice AWM
I was referring to prone shooting. If you’re shooting off a fence post or doing PRS stuff you do what you gotta do. You don’t want your gun balanced in the middle ideally for max stability you would not mount your bipod there right? That’s all I’m commenting on, but I agree the AXSR design is challenged that hump is more there for structural rigidity as a solid mount for hand guard than a design point. Would prefer without it too.
It’s not but ok. Study the development of the EDM Windrunner which I had and also the Cheytac M200 which I had. The Windrunner had the bipod in the midpoint of the gun and that was the main complaint and the thing that held it back. Cheytac moved the bipod over a foot forward and it changed the stability night and day. I had an EDM with both and would used both bipods. Again changed the gun. Same exact physics apply to using a bag prone shooting with rear support.
Can I ask who you got the camouflage cover on the scope from? I’ve been looking to cover mine up.

@hafejd301k-1mile max. have ranges near me for both that I'm going to get a membership for.
Also - i've saved like 50 pics from this thread as inspiration, AT with thumbhole is preety beautiful rifle. So is AXSR with 18.5 proofSo I think they are equally "cool" since that is preety important. I have a Helios QD Ti supressor I plan to run with .308 and 6.5 creed already. So I figure with the TI supressor direct thread (weighs about as much as a muzzle break or less), and a proof 18.5, the AXSR would be relatively maneuverable for when i'm shooting short action cartridges?
@hafejd30
Starbridge,
The AXSR is easily moveable with a 26” steel AI 6.5CM barrel (and hellfire match brake) so an 18” CF with a can will be no issue unless you have a physical impairment. My PRS barrel is a 24” 308 with a hellfire match, and it’s very easy to move around.
I pretty much only run short action rounds in my AXSR with the only magnum (so far) being 300PRC. I have yet to get enough free time to scout areas in southern AZ where I can really get to play with the PRC so my AI pretty much lives in 65CM or 308. …and why I haven’t dropped the cash on a 300NM barrel.
The long action vs short action throw isn’t an issue and isn’t noticeable after the first range session. I know you didn’t ask about that but figured I’d chime in with it.
I’d say get the AXSR if funds aren’t an issue, especially if you’re going to have access to a range with that capability. Very easy to maneuver and it just shoots really damn well. Me not so much
Oh and the balance of the rifle is just perfect without the addition of weights and whatnot.
You won’t regret it man.
If AI ever offers any LH AXMC parts again, I can guarantee a large expenditure on my partYou won’t regret it man.
Well I mean you might after you see how much ammo you’ll go through
I’ll say this though, I recommend you buy all three bolt bodies as soon as you can, that way you aren’t limited in caliber choices because of in stock issues. I have all three complete bolts but need to eventually snag a spare 308 bolt body to add to the parts kit. Just in case because it’s my primary bolt. I also snagged a spare AXSR trigger from EO. Never hurts to have it in the kit.
Now we know where all the parts wentYou won’t regret it man.

Thank you for helping explain that much more eloquently than I could!

Witch us retarded. As @theking says. It’s about the same machining to make a AT-X and they sell that less than half the dollars.
Aren’t you supposed to be trolling the poors somewhere else’s
Shoot me a PM. Have a DE rifle that just arrived this afternoon. All 3 bolt bodies and a few barrel options here in stock.
Oh I was aware it was happening thought it was going hit Jan 1 lol
Define “safe”. Basically have to be willing to drill a through hole in the chassis, not a big deal but best to do on a machine and not with a hand drill lol. For some reason AI didn’t put the hole in the square tube section on the fixed stock model
You think there is enough meat between the skin and chassis to make a relief hole for the plug portion of the thumb rest?Define “safe”.

There you go again with the poorsOh I was aware it was happening thought it was going hit Jan 1 lol
Edit looks like euro still has em for 10k
And I got dudes crying I'm asking 7k for my mc.... Poors pay up it's about to be 8k

What’s the street price gonna be on the ATX with the new increase? And barrels fixing to go up too, right?
No idea on pricing on the "New" Atx. Same $5250 Msrp on Gen3s. Barrels already went up a few weeks ago.
Are they trying to price themselves out of the game? SheeshAx50elr is now $14,809.
The rear mounting screw should go into the threaded metal flange that comes with the AT kit. You’d need a printed piece with a threaded insert for the rear (similar to the front) if you wanted it to just attach to the skin.
