I don’t hate the Harris, but I bought like 20 years ago when it was your choice of Harris or some sort of Bass Pro level bullshit.
There’s better options, I’m willing to explore them.

The feet on the Harris roll forward if you try to load it at all. The rifle just rolls away from you. That’s my biggest complaint with it. But the tilt adjustment (assuming you do the Pod-Loc mod) is among the best I’ve used. With a Pod-Loc, the Harris is probably better on the tilt consistency than most others. But the little thumb wheel that comes on a stock Harris to adjust tilt tension is next to useless.
LOL...TBAC...useless....ATLAS...funny
You should up your game with all of those fancy thermals
If you only shoot off dirt spiked feet are awesome. If you shoot off the hood of your truck or your wood deck, get rubber feet.
Harris still works. Honestly it’s fine for everything but movers and crazy match barricades.
Ckye pod is pretty sweet but heavy and 2x more $ than it should be
I have all 3 but mostly prefer atlas

LRA has the 2nd nicest cant after the EI, IMHO. But I haven’t used the Accutac, just Harris, EI, Cal GenII, SCAL, and LRA lite tactical f-class.
Definitely take a hard look at the accutac. Very sturdy and about the only locking mechanism that actually locks your rifle down so it doesn't cant when you don't want it to. The elite iron also locks down well but apparently it's kind of bendy. 
I think he said he shoots blanks.... whatever that means
What is the trick to finding AW magazines?
Do they hit the market and get instantly gobbled up?
Does AI only make them once per year or some other type of schedule?
What is the pattern of life for these things?
I have in stock alerts setup at most of the normal places.
Thank you in advance.

Those are not aw mags.....
They are only making ax style rifles now home skillet... allegedly draw your own conclusions
I wonder if one could grind the lip off AX mags?
The AW fit my ATX so they must close
I’m thinking you’ll see more AW mags. Several aftermarket actions use them now. Or at least I hope
Mil/LE also still available to purchase AT. I can’t imagine they won’t make them
Buy the AW mags with the lip (ax/atx), take dremel with cutoff wheel and put a slit down the center of the "lip". Now take a flat face hammer (jewlers hammer) and beat it flat. I have a few mags I've done this to and they have been running for years.
I was able to pick up 3 in the last month, just checked the places I got them and they are out of stock. It was short action precision and triad tactical so maybe not on your list.
Just a little...I aspire to be as skilled as you when I grow up
I trust you won't have dilusions of grandure thinking a remmy700 is an awm when you get there
?

I am pretty level-headed.
@BurtG should have a YouTube channel focusing on durability. If something can make it 6 months with him, it is a winner.
Watch the px to. See them from time to time in there
Maybe try a WTB in the PX also. I bet a lot of people have 1 of 2 in a parts bin unused. Might have bought them to try with a AW cut custom but went back to AICS mags.
Just be wary of those Nigerian prince ads. WTB ads are scammer magnets here
I have some new AW mags if anyone has atx mags and wants to trade
That seems like a lot of work and destruction
I'll snap a few pics when I get home of the finished product. It takes me longer to find where I put my damn dremel tool than it does to mod a few mags. As for destruction you are only putting the slit in the lip. The carbon disk is just the right thickness that when you hammer the flaps flush it's the perfect gap.
GM308M2 is all I shoot in my 24" factory AX308 barrel. Last time in Chrono'd it was 2668fps.
Shooting out of my 24" barreled AT and using my bud's Labradar, I measured an MV of 2656 with an SD of 10.9 (20 rounds consecutive).
Expensive dryfire or not , it’s growing on me
Reloads not factory..
I got 185 jugs to go 2730. No pressure signs. Didn’t get to try it out to 1k yards yet. I’m sure it’ll have no problem goin that distance.
26” AI barrel
Berger 185 JUGS #30418
Peterson .308 srp brass
46.2 gr CFE 223
cci 450 primers
coal 2.945 (just under mag length).
Garmin Xero
Very nice. Do you have a similar formula for 175 grain SMKs
40.7 imr 4064 with a 175smk at 2.820 coal in lapua brass (41.7 in winchester) is my M118LR load. Does 2700 out of a 24" and 2560 out of a 19". Gupical groups out of the 19" and honestly any gun I've put them through with this load. (The black x one is truthfully not part of the group)
Possible, might be a bit ambitious but I'd say 2775ish.
Might be able to pick up my TRG before the weekend and might be able to tell you for sure.
I don’t. Was going too, but the bc on the jugs looks better on paper then that of the 175 smk. So went with the jugs instead. Though, I did snag a box of 169 smk. Which has the same bc as the 175 smk. Should be able to get the 169’s close to 2800. 26” barrel 1:10 and reloads really gets the 185’s going though. Some use MR 2000 to get it in the 2700 plus range with a 20” barrel.
I really need to get my Vudoo out. It’s going to have a birthday in my safe coming up…
Haven’t even fired it yet
Reunited with my old AXSR.

For those from before in the AX vs AW mags. Apparently I didn't do that to AW mags but I have plenty of aics mags I did it to. 2 modified AX mags next to a standard aics mag.
Ok, two question:
The first is a pretty obvious question, but wanted to confirm.
AT wanting to run a clip-on needs:
Second Q:
Anyone have pics of a 1.5” scope mount on an AT/AE/AW on the low rail? Preferably a Spuhr 4002, but I’ll take whatever.
I’m asking that b/c I’m not sure if I’d go with a clip-on or just a thermal scope. If I go the latter I just want a visual of how high the scope looks.
The first is a pretty obvious question, but wanted to confirm.
AT wanting to run a clip-on needs:
- AT Night Vision Bracket
- 20 MOA Night Vision Rail for the AT NV Bracket
- High AI pic rail for scope
- And here is the question: 1.5” rings, right?

Screwed on some unknown round count $100 barrel in old man caliber.
Hornady is the king as usual. Shame they discontinued the steel match. My scar really likes it
I know. 3 shot groups. But I don’t have the skill / patience I used to
Oh no cherry picking except for excluding the 5 shoter I decided to go rapid fire on

AI AE Mk I, 20 MOA low rail, 20 MOA IMUNS, PST Gen II 5-25x50, Vortex extra high(1.54") rings, PVS-27. Not the best pic, but I could mock up a living room pick if you need it.
Yeah, just a side shot without the NV would work. Just seeing how high they look with that low rail. I like high rings (1.5” to 1.4”) but looks factor into it a bit more than usual as, well, it’s an AI.
