I actually posted a WTB ad in the PX and got a 2nd hat which was really nice since the first one is always getting worn

Ecstatic to finally have a training day that didn’t involve rain. ?
Here’s my partner’s rifle basking in the glow of the “golden hour”.
Here’s my partner’s rifle basking in the glow of the “golden hour”.
I went from a Savage 308 10 HS Precision to a Accuracy International AE MK 1, 8 years ago. I can't go back to anything less. But I am finally looking to move to an AT in 6.5 this year.
Thanks for driving the price upThanks for out bidding me on gunbroker bro
But seriously hopefully they'll have some more soon for you, I kind of bought this on a whim and would much prefer an AWM
Where can I find a list of AI rifles that were/are fairly well available to the public?
Gonna start an AI collection ?

Really hope they get their store up and running. I'd love to buy an AI hat and shirt.
I was having issues with the barrel getting loose when hot. Tightening the set screw to 65 in lbs seems to have solved the issue. I shot a bunch of steel today and the barrel didn't loosen and I hit what I was aiming at. Like when I shoot my DT lol

Anyone's barrel threads have a very light marking roughly the shape of the quickloc where it "grabs" the barrel threads? So basically the bottom of the barrel when indexed.
Please don’t cost me more money lol
Me thinks a chassis is a foot
Or perhaps a new main chassis block and handguard with an integral dovetail that goes all the way back to the magwell, with a barricade stop just in front of the magazine... something that people have been wanting for a while now.
It would also be neat if the new chassis section supported a standard AR grip interface...
Just throwing some ideas out there.
Love that more people are getting over the "scary" factor of debonding the action from the AI chassis! It's just epoxy and bolts, not magic.

I need some advice. I’d like to buy an AT short action and run a 6.5 SAUM. I know I can have a barrel spun up. 1. Can the bolt face be opened up to accommodate the SAUM case? 2. Will it feed from mags?
Or should I forget about it...

I would forget it for the AT. It sounds like it runs well in a 300WM mag. I’m sure you could find someone to open the bolt, but I wouldn’t.
Question:
Did you guys sell other rifles once you got your AI? I'm debating selling or saving for my kids.
My reasons to keep:
They are bought and paid for. Loads developed. Don't need the money and won't get what I have into them. Will cost more to replace later.
Reasons to sell:
I have an AI now

If you don’t need the money, I’d keep them. As long as they’re stored properly, it’s not like they’ll rot or go bad, haha.
I sold a lot to get my AI, but only because I had to in order to keep it. I didn’t WANT to sell anything, but I had to be realistic with where I’m at right now, and just couldn’t justify having as much money wrapped up in rifles right now. I’ll be replacing several of them as time goes by, but when I really thought about it, the AI checked the most boxes, would get used the most, and was the biggest “grail” rifle of the bunch (though it was close with a few). Life goes on, and I’m happy with my decision.
I appreciate the feedback. I like to ask the opinions of others to gauge my thought process. I'll just hang on to them for now. I have a strong feeling my kids will be asking to shoot as they grow
I’m not too proud to pimp my wife out. For you and any others that are interested feel free To PM me and we can discuss the options and price
Got my @samb300 thumbtest installed on my AT. Easy breezy with his YouTube video. Hopefully I can get to the range soon and try it out. Fit is excellent.

The only reason I would part with the other rifles would be to get a second AI.
The devil on my left shoulder says I need an AXMC or another home grown AT LE. The angel on my right shoulder says I wouldn’t get to stretch out the AXMC very often so it’s not worth the investment. And one AT is probably enough.
This is too familiar... Mine is saying "buy the AX buttstock" the other says "just buy an AX", the other says "you also need an AXMC"
Struggle is real.
Personally I wouldn’t buy an AX. I would either do the AX stock conversion to the AT or jump up to the AXMC.
The only functionality you gain with an AX over the Converted AT is the side clearance for the magazine. You can get NV rail and key slot for the sides of the AT.
Now if I had stoopid lottery type money that changes things.
Was able to get to the range for some testing. These AI's shoot damn good. The Left (2) vertical rows are from the .338 and the Right (2) vertical rows are from the 308.
Just picked up my new AXMC today. Pretty cool to see the changes made compared to my AW. Now to get started on my 300wm load development....
Hey guys, I've got another cool product I've been working on! If any of you AX shooters have been wanting an anti-rotation QD sling mount, I've got the answer. This will work on all pre-14 and post-14 AX forends (AX, AX338, AX308, AXMC, AX-AICS), all you'll need is the correct mounting screw for your variant. Mounting screws will be available at the time of purchase if you need an extra pair.
The mount will be Black Nitrided steel, and comes in at only 0.36" H x 0.66" W x 1.85" L. It's super snag-free and much lower-profile than the factory picatinny/QD combo. It is anti-rotation, with sling positions at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock. Each position has about +/- 15° of rotation built in it so the sling isn't too locked into place.
These will be an Anarchy Outdoors exclusive product, and the estimate I've been given is 8 weeks for availability. Let me know what you think!

I am about to purchase the AXMC...Am i going to make a mistake? I don't shot a lot... maybe 300 rounds a year... if that... lots of guys told me to get a savage, tikka, or RPR... .300 WM.. honestly.. If i get that I still have to spend another 2K for sure in chassis and other stuff... and I still get to 3,000 - 4,000 SPENDING... Or just leave them stock.. but then I wouldn't like it a lot.... I was thinking if i buy the AXMC it will be different .. I will shot it more probably and i would really enjoy it when i go to the range or hunting with it... When you bought your first AI rifle.. how was it?
I started with a savage rifle and then a Tikka. I would shoot maybe 500 rounds per year. After I got my AI I now shoot almost every weekend and have three different caliber barrels. It is so much better and more accurate than my Savage which made me want to shoot more.
The bolt face can be opened up, but what about the extractor ? Extractor is cut for the 308 family, might be able to bend it.
Mags I don’t know what would work, I asked a friend, he says there is another follower for the AW mags that might let them work.
I have a couple Tikkas. They’re great guns for the money. They shoot well and there’s plenty of aftermarket things you can do to them. I have probably $2200 into each of them with both a Cadex and KRG W3 chassis. You don’t have to spend $2K for a chassis as there are plenty of deals to be had on them.
With that said, I have four AI’s, two AE’s, an AX, and an AXMC. Nothing I have ever been behind shoots like they do, even the AE’s. I have less money into the AE’s than my Tikkas as a matter of fact. They can be had for sub $3K on here, and even AT’s pop up for $3500 or less.
It’s all preference and what you’re willing to spend. I can say that my AI’s are a little more forgiving given the weight, adjustability, and the fact that they’re built from the factory to perform for professional shooters. Not to mention, you just feel more badass when you’re shooting one. I know that shooting comes down to fundamentals, but a little mental boost by having great equipment doesn’t hurt either.
They will all put rounds down range effectively, But life is short. If you already worry you’ll regret not getting one, then you better get one. Just my two cents right or wrong.

Remember how it felt when you figured out how to jerk off the first time?
My Dad is getting on in years and this last summer when I went to visit, he gave me the old pellet gun he used to take us out shooting with. We didn't go shooting much, and it was only a pellet gun, but it meant a lot. My dad did well for himself, but my wife and I have talked about how we don't want to duke it out with my siblings for any of his stuff when He dies. But I might have been tempted to throw a few for that pellet gun...
Anyway, I think it would be very meaningful to have them to train your kids with and then eventually pass them on.
Plus, now I can tell my wife that we have so many guns "for the children."
I'm going to go against the grain here and say it didn't blow me away. That's not to say that my AT is not a very very nice rifle, it's just that my first impression did not match the hype that some here will lead you to believe. I've owned several custom rifles, built just how I like them and shot many more owned by others. I've put hands on a lot of different guns. A custom rifle, TO ME, feels better than an AI. The bolt will cycle smoother, the trigger can be lighter and maaaybe crisper, and you can choose a stock/chassis that fits you best.
With that being said, the AI bolt is still pretty slick and I do like the factory trigger a lot. The chassis is growing on me still and if I could just change the grip I'd be happy. But that's not really what something like an AI is all about. You've got a complete system that is designed to work together and has been proven for DECADES. I do not regret selling my custom rifle to buy an AI.
