The issues aren't with the firing pin diameter per say, but the gap between firing pin hole and firing pin. You'll be good to go now that it's bushed.

Finally got my feet wet and took the plunge... Showing promise with mild loads.

Welcome to the addiction!
That sounds like a good problem to have! You can save some coin by picking up an AT then putting an AX on it.
Well, I received my 1993 "camo" AI AW and have spent a good chunk of my day in an acetone bath. Here are some before and after pictures.
I will try to strip the last stubborn layers out but pretty happy with the result so far.

What is the original color sniper grey or black? It looks grey and I never knew they came in that color.
The original color is green. The stock is a bit hazy because there is still some residue of the film left on the stock.
300 Win Mag, Rem 700 action, 22" Pac-Nor barrel, Omega can, Leopold Mk 4.
Got the AT LE in last night! AMG mounted on a 3602 Spuhr, pretty damn stoked! Thanks @milehighshooting for the sale!
Had an extra harris laying around, but plan on purchasing an Atlas CAL here in the near future. Also ppan on buying that picatiny block that replaces the spigot slot that ome of the hide members designed. He has a deal setup with anarchy ourdoors or something and aren't available yet i don't think.

Nice setup, looks great!
I’m the guy that designed the bipod spigots, they are available and ready to ship now from Anarchy. Check them out here —> https://www.anarchyoutdoors.com/accuracy-international-spigot-mount/
Let me know if you have any questions!

I suppose it’s time I join in with my AT.
It has felt like a new rifle since replacing the spigot with the Picatinny rail from @samb300 through Anarchy Outdoors. It has been the absolute best upgrade I’ve made yet beside switching the original 24” 308 barrel with a 26” 260 Bartlein gain twist from MHSA.

Prime 130, until I decide I have enough brass to reload. Which could be awhile because it shoots Prime well enough and I have a metric shit ton from when they had their big sale last year.
Thanks. I'm shooting the Prime 130 in an AI 24" barrel with similar good results.
Looks good Sam!
I'm curious though why you abandoned the slightly offset center hole that allowed the tip of the QD swivel to enter the round part of the keyslot and thus kept the whole thing even lower profile? Was it just an insignificant gain compared to the aesthetics?
Thanks

Good catch! I revised the design from the prototype because in my research I discovered it violated a patent that BCM has on their KeyMod sling mount. When I originally designed the prototype it was a completely organic design and I thought I had stumbled on a great idea with the sling stud protruding into the rail itself; turns out BCM had already done it and I wasn’t willing to pursue it further for that reason.
The production version is still only 0.25” thick where it mounts, but the center section is now 0.375” thick where the sling stud attaches.
Thanks,
Sam
Sweet! I checked like 1 or 2 weeks ago and they still had the coming soon tag haha. Ill have to pick one up then
Gonna run a ckye pod with picatinny rail on my AT.
Any idea which pic rail length will run full length on the bottom, or am I going to have to get two rails and back them up to one another?

The Ckye Pod picatinny mount tolerances are pretty generous so it can accommodate rails that are out of spec. It has a good bit of wobble forward and aft. I tested it on a B&T, AI, BCM, and one other pic rail with varying results. The ARCA rail locks up much tighter than the Ckye Pod. Just food for thought.
Dark Earth. DE normally has the black butt pad, Pale Brown and Sage Green normally are color matching.
Gave in and grabbed one of our shorty AIAT 6.5 CM Proof CF barrels.
Looking to order same color. Was the color darker than you expected, or just right? Any regrets going with Sage Green? Anyone else please comment on color you ordered and any regrets?

I haven’t put any rounds through it yet. My Bartlein shoots exceptionally well and I expect the same from this barrel. I will try and remember to post how it does.
Almost there 
still have to buy couple more things....
AXMC .300 WM
TT Gen 3XR
Atlas BiPod
.308 Long Action Bolt
6.5 Proof Research
Sphur 4002

Looks good, what length is your PR barrel and where did you get it
Thanks
I've only used Tab Gear rear bag as a front bag during comps until today. I knew it wasn't ideal but it got the job done. Finally decided to get a real front bag and got the pint sized GC and used it for the 1st time today during a match. Huge improvement not surprisingly. It's not too big but it's very solid.
Thanks. Yeah I did it myself more for function than looks. I could've def done a much better job if I took my time but didn't feel like spending 12hrs stippling a $30 part. The forend is lot less slippery now
Shooting my AT in 6.5CM at 900yds Bisley, UK.
Was using factory “Sako TRG Precision” ammo which uses a 136 Scenar-L. I have no idea what the scoring ring size is, but I shot a string of 10 ‘V’s with it, and that being the maximum possible it can’t be too bad.
Kind of uneventful but that is a positive thing. My usual 140 Berger load is getting along with the Proof CF like it did with the Bartlein 5R. I’m using a Dead Air Nomad-30 suppressor (direct thread).
Finally broke out the 18” 308 barrel today for a quick 100y zero and some magneto numbers. Not too many rounds down the tube but enough to tell me I need to do more work with the 308! Amazing what recoil does when you’re being fundamentally lazy. Most every target was around 3/4-1 moa. Had one group that would have been 1/4-3/8ish but through the 4th round to make it right around 1 lol. Nothing worthy of a picture anyway. Was surprised with the consistency of 175 SMK FGMM ammo. 10 rounds was right around an SD of 10 and right at 2550. At first I didn’t even think that the longer 15.5” handguard wouldn’t allow me to to attach the magneto to the barrel but I figured it out and actually liked this setup a lot better!
First rounds through the 6Creed barrel. Looks like Hornady ELDM is a winner!
Nice thumb placement. We make a thumb rest that can be installed right there. Check it over at anarchyoutdoors.com.
