Beautiful day for a KYL match. Only dropped 3 shots, cleaned the 1260 yard rack, and dropped one at the 1185 yard rack. Ended up winning the match with some of the best shooters in the North East there.
You are obviously poorly informed... First off, you're shooting 6.5 "Manbun". They suck. Secondly, you're shooting an AI, and everyone knows they suck in matches (@DeathBeforeDismount. He has stated that if he had been at that match and seen your rifle, he would have immediately known he would automatically place above you before the first shot of the match was even fired, just because it's an AI). And thirdly, you're shooting an old, and out-dated Schmidt. They suck too. Mathematically speaking, there's zero chance you could have won that match. You should just acknowledge that, and hand the trophy back.
(Yes, ALL of the above is sarcasm, and you should get an additional trophy for sticking your thumb in the eye of the know-it-alls).
Well done!

Great shooting! Congrats.
You know, it would be sick to get your weights out front Cerakoted to match your camo pattern.
Love that camo btw. Who did it?

Anyone have a line on the cleaning kit in the ASR deployment kit? Or even just the boreguide.
Those look like boretech products.

Managed to sneak out and take the new 6CM barrel for a run this afternoon. I’m thinking it needs a shorty .308 barrel next.
All this rattle-can talk makes me half nervous to admit that I like the new two-tone cerakote look… please don’t bully me…

Thumbhole Vision/AO crew! You gotta paint that damn silver barrel though
Im actually considering putting my PM2 on this thing too.
Is that an adjustable LOP on that last pic of your thumbhole? Tell me more.6-month evolution of my lovely money-pit.

I hear Bergara is just as good.
And don't rule out Savage... That accu-trigger is

I went to the local Izaak Walton 100yd range this morning to re-zero a new 400 MOD BB 5R, finished at 28", for the 300PRC. I'm just at 120rds and I think it's sped up as I'm getting some insane speeds (2950fps) from factory Hornady 225s. I have a bunch of 1x fired brass so now it's time to work up some loads for the Berger 220s with RL26.
Why is there always one when you're so close to that bughole group?

Did you have the action and hinge cerakoted black or did it come that way from AI? I think it looks great, sort of like a supersized AT-XC.
Thanks, I think it turned out pretty good, too.
Other way around, actually. It was black, got the chassis done in FDE but got them to leave the action, hinge, etc. in black. I always liked the two-tone look of the AXMC LE, so this is just kind of a knock-off version of that, I guess.
95+ at the range yesterday, good cooling is going to be mandatory all summer long:
What in the Ryobi F am I looking at???
It's actually AI's new PCP air rifle in that picture, and he's recharging the air cylinder after the pressure dropped too low after the last shot string. However, in keeping with British tradition when it comes to electrical component reliability, the AI branded UK built air pump that comes with the rifle already let the magic smoke out, so he had to replace the UK air pump with the Ryobi.
On a more serious note, he's just using the Ryobi inflator as a barrel cooler. I do something similar but use a compact rechargeable air mattress inflator. It's much smaller than the Ryobi but cranks out way more air than a chamber chiller or riflekuhl, runs about 40 minutes on a charge. I also don't like the possibility of forcing dirty air down my barrel if say a big cloud of dust gets kicked up and sucked into the inflator inlet, so I use a CPAP filter inline with the hose. Works quite well on hot days, but obviously not as well as a cool damp towel wrapped around the barrel.
Which pump did you buy? I need an upgrade from the riflekuhl as it takes forever with a suppressed 30 cal.
ETA: Looking at this one from Amazon.

I'm using this one:
FLEXTAILGEAR MAX Pump 2020 Portable Air Pump with 3600mAH Battery USB Rechargeable Air Pump-Quick Inflate Deflate for Sleeping Pads, Air Mattress, Pool Toys, Floats, Swimming Ring, Air Bed (Orange) https://a.co/d/frUBMsd
Using larger vinyl tubing out of the pump to a CPAP inline filter, then out of the filter to smaller vinyl tubing into the chamber.
Didn’t want to just gloss over the most AI thing in this whole thread. Filtering your rifles air
Kidding aside, not a bad idea

I'm not ashamed to admit I stole the idea from the riflekuhl, lol
Why pump potentially dirty, gritty crap down your barrel if you don't have to?
Realized a filter was a good idea when someone at the range had their home made barrel cooler running and an employee drove by in a side by side kicking up a bunch of dust, you could watch the dust getting sucked into the inlet of his barrel cooler.
As Kiba said Ryobi makes this inflator tool which is cheapo at depot. After that take some vinyl tubing and cut up a case, jam the neck end of the case into one end of the tube (I used a Creedmoor necked to 7mm just 'cause.) And then cut a small ring out of the center of the case and jam that into the other end of the tube once it's fed through the Ryobi inflator thing end cap. This setup has gained some popularity around here and another shooter showed me how they threw it together so I always pass along the tip:
FYI, here's my setup with the flextail mattress inflator and CPAP filter. I bent thin wall 9mm OD x 0.5mm wall brass tubing to go into the chamber, short end of the tubing for short actions and long end for long actions, just flip it around in the vinyl tubing. 9mm od brass tubing is a close fit into a .223 chamber and works in everything else that's larger.
Fyi I found out that cheap clear vinyl tubing (or whatever it is) stiffens up like a mo fo in cold weather. Becomes totally useless.
And yeah, the barrel cools faster in cold weather than in hot. But it cools even quicker aided by my Ryobi.
I need to source something else. Silicone? Any ideas? Looks like @Kiba used silicone…and where did you guys get your little filter apparatuses?

I actually used vinyl because I had a bunch of it on hand.
Silicone remains much more flexible than vinyl in the cold, but some grades of silicone tubing are so soft they kink very easily, so stay away from the really low durometer stuff.
The CPAP filter and adapters are from Amazon... here's what I used:

Also of note, I (re)found brass-tipped AT-compatible cheekpiece thumbscrews.

Upgrade in cheek piece for Accuracy International Stocks
I know I saw somewhere, a pad to put on the cheek piece to make it more "tacky" than the stock one. Anyone know what I am thinking of? Thanks in advance.
