So the barrels......where are they that cheap and not through a secret society that you shouldn't advertise?

Mil/LE/First Responder discount programs. Part of the stipulation for getting sweet discounts from some of the biggest names going is that you don’t disclose the discounts/prices to anyone, especially online. Some even have the clause of not sharing with coworkers (despite their program qualification) and directing them to apply themselves.

Side note: If you’re MIL/LE and you aren’t on the NF program, you’re wrong.

I know what the programs are and how they work. I was just wondering if that was where he's getting his pricing or if there's regular channels that are that cheap.

 

[flyright]

Not sure if my contact wants that released. I suppose all this means that would be a good barrel and deal? I've seen $650 at Special Purpose Rifles on line BTW but I believe they're unfinished drop ins.

 

[choktog]

Pretty sure 650 is the msrp for proofs steel AI prefits. I have one on order hope it shoots like everyone says it should.

I'm finna fuck 2020 up!

 

[Papamo]

Anyone using the Proof steel drop in barrels? Saw them advertised at $600-$650 and considering trying one out on my AX just to have a backup when the Wintac 6.5 is shot out. I've been hearing great reviews on the Proof steel (and Carbon) barrels.

Got one of the proof steel in a 6 creedmoor for a AXMC and it shoots good and cleans up fast. Picture of some groups its shooting doing some load development with 105 hybrids and H4350 at 100 yards. So far I'm pleased with the performance of the barrel

I’ll make you a deal... I’ll assemble your back pain health kit box thing for the low cost of letting me hold that Black and Tan sexiness...

Ok well I’ll turn the box into a cool fort. I’m not asking for much here. Lol

 

[Winny94]

Speaking of Proof, why do they list a 6.5 PRC Prefit for the AX308?

 

[BLKWLFK9]

Got her put together. This is DEFINITELY worth the little hassle of debonding and re-bonding. Feels like cuddling up to a pair of DD ( o )( o )

 

[dinnerbucket]

Where'd you see that price?

Anyone have a preference for a cheap 30 cal bullet that has performed well in a factory 1-12 308 barrel?

The Hornady 168 ELD-M is reasonably priced and shoots well in the 1:12 factory .308 barrels.

Speer 125 TNT. Excellent for short range practice.

 

[Badfinger]

My new favorite .308 load in a 1:12 twist 20" barrel is 46.1 grains of Varget, 155 Nosler Competition bullet. Be safe and work your way up to this load, YMMV.

 

[Nik H]

Anyone with an AXMC in 338 LM ever run the Berger cartridge with the 300 grain OTM bullet?

I am hearing that its COAL is 3.8" which is a little longer than SAAMI standards and it might not feed from SAAMI compliant mags.

Anyone comment if this will feed from the AXMC mag?

Not exactly the same but I load the Hornady 285 gr ELD-M to a 3.775" COAL with no feeding issues in my AXMC. I just ordered some Berger 300gr Hybrid OTM Tactical bullets to try out that are .076" longer than the Hornady, I should know by this weekend what that COAL is.

Thanks for the reply and am looking forward to your report on the Bergers

[Defender3]

Nothing really special, I just took the new AX to the local range to see how some of the factory .260R performed. The 26" WinTac barrel seemed to like the 136g Bergers and the 130g Prime. Not as much luv for H130s, Berger 130s and 140s. I have some 142g FGMM coming tomorrow and I'll have to see if my 142gr SMK H4350 load performs.

I also slapped a SOCOM 762-RC on the barrel and with the 136g Bergers, there was only a 0.1mil downward shift in POI.

What chassis is this? I didn't see it mentioned in the thread yet. Looks great!

My AT finally has a big brother

 

[NoLegs24]

Since some of you have asked....the forend on the ASR and PSR/ AXMC are not cross compatible...

I tried Nosler 168 grain custom competition in my AT, and it’s a 0.5 MOA bullets. The barrel that came with the AT is not British proofed, so must be a US barrel installed by Mile High. I bought these factory over-run Nosler bullets at $20/100 and they shoot as well as SMK168 in several 308 rifles I owned.

 

[Snipe260]

 

[Painterbolt]

Loving this gun so far. Still testing rounds, so far everything's shot about a half other than factory hornady 178's which were about 3 moa.

I did not know about NF! thank you for showing me the error in my ways! I thought my pro form skills where strong between veteran status and Ski Patrol I refuse to pay retail lol

I did get a AXMC on that screaming sale Ero Optic had last week... and already have a Proof Barrel on the way... then i can contribute my pics and join this thread in all of its glory lol

I have been bumping some posts in the forums about the AXMC trying to learn about my new rifles that has always been my dream gun.. Thanks for some of you guys for replying to them..

I would like to know what our our options for a rifles case besides the $750 one that AI sells.. I am looking for somthing about as custom as comes with the MRAD

Looking good! Gotta ditch those Butler Creeks though ?

AXMC mag adapter in black is on it's way from MH, I know a few people were still looking for them.

will the axsr 308s integrate backward? as i understand it they dont need an adapter.

They're supposed to but I would rather not be waiting on magazines to be in stock in the correct colors personally.

 

[Winny94]

Standing open offer. Would be open to trading my AX for an AT of similar vintage & condition (2017 very good/great condition . About 700 rds). Love the rifle, but could use a little extra cash and I don't need the forend. Sage green. Ideally we'd keep our barrel (since I really like this one). Traded rifle would also need the SFP

[oda175365]

Alright - gotta a few question for the AI guys:

I have a pre-14 AIAX- non switch barrel. Anyone do their own barrel changes? If so where did you get your action wrench/barrel change kit? And do you use the prefit current barrels offered for the post 14 rifles. Thanks in advance for the help.
