Accuracy International Picture Thread

[BLKWLFK9]

Learned something interesting today while grabbing some parts. AI only made 75 Dark Earth AT’s. So if you have one, don’t rough them up too bad lol. I scratched a piece that was luckily replaceable.

my AT wasn't originally DE but i got the skins. love them.

My humble contribution to this awesome thread. AXMC LH .338. NF ATACAR 7x35. Shoots like a dream. Can't believe I waited this long to get one.

I have been looking for one of these for quite some time!

Humble?! Heck, I'd salivate at the chance to purchase an AXMC. Once I ran Night Assasins bolt...it was game over. I never knew how much smoother the AXMC's bolt lift was vs an AT/AX308.

First a clip on NV of some type, and then the AXMC after a house purchase.

One for the history buffs, the AW does retro

@brianf not only is it wrong handed but the Bipod is on backwards

@brianf not only is it wrong handed but the Bipod is on backwards

Shit just looked again.
OP spin that Harris

 

[AXMC338L]

Well Shit. Thanks.

 

[eo3x0]

Well Shit. Thanks.

One the nice things about Atlas bipods is that you can rotate them in both directions. I know for me, I like to stow the feet backwards (for space while cased), so if that's an issue for you, put that into consideration. The ability to tilt and level the bipod also adds a big plus. Unfortunately for the harris bipods, they need to fold forward in order to load properly for a shot.

AX fitted hard case... what are you using - could you post some photos/descriptions? My new 308 20” AX arrived on Friday, with a Storm 3300 and cut foam... it was a bit “challenged”, and now I’m wondering about cutting my own or going to an AI OEM AX case. I need a hard case else I might try something else... education/exposure to what you’re using would be appreciated - thanks!

Pelican 1720 fits a 24" barrel with a muzzle brake. I cut the foam with a filet knife.

 

[MACHTECH]

I use the pelican 1720's as well with the harder foam kits from Amazon on most of mine, but you still can't beat the fitted foam that comes in the factory cases!

 

[jmar]

This thread makes me sad I had to sell my AW. I miss owning an AI. I'm thinking about picking up an AE or something until I can find my grail gun which is an AWM. Need an AI in my life.

 

[Trek]

Great case options.... I like the hybrids that make use of the folding stock... the 1720 with a custom (me) cut package would be a great option... the travel case with the barrel in the lid won’t work because of the barrel length... and unless I’m wrong, even the factory AI cases are built for a RH action... mine is a fifty (notice the bolt recess in the lid)...but, I could always remove the bolt.

 

[HillBilly n TX]

Mile High carries some nice Pelican/Storm 3200 and 3300 cases with custom foam. The interior foam is a really nice closed cell.

 

[mercracing]

I wish the travel case was a little bigger. I would like to have more then a 20” barrel in there.

Does anyone have any photos of dark earth ATs? I have always wondered if these existed.

I’ve recently purchased an AXMC in 300 Win Mag I also want to shoot 308, I’ve been offered a brand new AW in 308 is that a better choice than getting the barrel kit for the AXMC ? Not sure which way to go....

Seldom would I advise you to not get two AI's, but I think if I was in your shoes I would get the pieces needed to utilize the AXMC. Once you have the bolt and mag adapter, you can shoot other short action calibers like 6.5 CM, 260, etc.

Cheers yes I’m thinking along the same lines ??

This is great advice! The only thing I would add is..... If you go this route, please let us know where this new AW is for sale?.

Took the 300 Winmag to the range. Late summer evening in the south of Sweden.

Mk13 mod5 (ish) build with all the good stuff.

Wondering if someone can do a favor for me? Anyone that has the AT NV bridge mount (AI #26619), could you measure the overall width of it? I'm working on a forend weight kit for the AT and want to make sure I design proper clearance for the NV bridge. Thanks!

I 100% need to take this course. It looks absolutely amazing. Sounds like a perfect excuse to do a two week cross country road trip.

 

[NoLegs24]

There’s really only 1 way to train/ shoot there unless you’re personally invited or Mil.
I’ll update soon on a Sawtooth Rifle’s class up there next year. May/ June time frame. Not cheap. But for what is included in price, will be very reasonable.
I suspect this class will fill up extremely fast. I’ve already got people on board waiting to sign up...
Like many have said, If you get a chance to train with Bryan Morgan and Scott Satterlee, take it!

1.74” once all the caliper’s wiggling settled down.

Where can I get that exact bipod “tongue” you have installed?

I ordered one of these in 300 win mag. The thing is a freak of nature. It's more accurate with FGMM than any of my custom barrels with handloads.

Did you order the CF or SS barrel and how did the contour compare to the stock barrel?

 

[MACHTECH]

I ordered the carbon fiber. It's beefy too. It's more comparable to the new heavier profile factory barrels.

What muzzle brake is that?

Is it 6.5mm specific?

It's made by Cadex. They have them for just about every caliber.

NP. They are VERY effective brakes too! Just don't stand to the side of someone using one. It's like getting punched in the face by Mike Tyson on my buddies 375 cheytac.

 

[OzzyO20]

I need to get another AI AT mag for an upcoming match (and in general). Does anyone have a good recommendation for a belt mounted mag pouch? Preferably multi cam.
