Just waiting on glass and 6.5cm barrel, feels nice to have it in hand though!

FYI the magnetospeed target hit indicators work real wellI had a chance to break away Sunday and head to Quantico for a day at 1,000y. It started as a crisp 27 degrees with direct sun and no wind and eventually warmed to the mid 50's with about a 5mph wind. The issue was mirage, it was as bad as I've ever seen on the complex. I had to dial down 0.5mils and the left to right was a full Mil and I still sucked. It was so bad we couldn't call shots, we couldn't see the hits on steel and there was no auditory feedback.
I brought the new Swarovski STS-80 out for a test drive. The consensus was the glass was clear and bright, but most folks could not tell the difference between the STS-80 and for example, a side-by-side with a 80mm Vortex HD. Maybe it was the day, but the Swaro lets in more light and has no chromatic distortion that I could see, even close to the edge of the glass.

Getting ready for the day. On position 24 and waiting for the EMT to arrive on site so we we can un-case and go hot.

The AI Mandalorian edition made it's debut.

First shot is always at about 0800 so there was a rising sun, cold temps and no mirage. I dialed up for a very low density altitude and fired 4 rounds at the clays at 1035y to confirm windage, then dialed down for 1,000 and shot for the head on a 2/3rds IPSC. I was a tad off. You could still see hits and I even got a ping off the hit. Crappy iPotato photo through the Swarovski.

The mirage started to come up after I had called shots and mentored for a couple of hours so it started to get brutal trying to determine hits - we could not see the red hit indicator lights on the targets either - I've never seen this before, even though we dialed down to about 15x. Here's a 10 shot target where literally thought I only had three hits. It turned out I had two misses.

Here's another target where I shot two five shot strings and again had no idea if I had hits. A check showed I didn't do too well. We all dialed down our scopes and did the same for the spotters, but there was so much target movement with the mirage it was just hard to confirm hits.

I went suppressed for the rest of the day and simply shot clays at 1035y. At least you could see the splash on the berm.

Not sure on the Arca rail, but if you want some more clearance, along with better performance than the BT19 spigot mount, check out the picatinny and Arca spigots from Anarchy Outdoors. They will allow the bipod to be mounted further forward.View attachment 7266758
is there an arca rail out there that will fit with my atlas cal mounted like this?
look at the lengths available through sawtooth. one may fit. you could always take a grinder to it

I purchased a hoptic which seems pretty comfy on my axmc, they do have one for the AT iircWhat cheek pads are you guys running? Ive seen the weibad and the stick on style. Any pros/cons with either? I like the fact that the stick on is less bulky.
New AT owner here will post a pic one I get it set up

I am very intrigued with these new turrets and would love to hear the details of their features.
I haven’t seen these anywhere besides the link you provided above.
Would you be able to explain how they work and new features in comparison to the old DT Turret? How does the locking system work and how does the second rev indicator work?
Thanks in advance
@Huskydriver
Get a cool reticle next time! LOL
Are you using the magneto speed with your suppressor? I am looking for options to use the crony with a suppressor.
Yes I am. Utilizing the wiser precision mount.Are you using the magneto speed with your suppressor? I am looking for options to use the crony with a suppressor.

It’s a standard factory 308 of an AI. Not really sure on the contourCan I ask what barrel contour you have there?
Got mine setup this evening. I believe this rifle has been owned by at least a couple members here, but it’s all mine now.View attachment 7270463
I did not put it in the MPA, so I cannot answer as to why someone else did. I do however know that a fair number of people do not like the AI chassis, so it was a no brainer to me to go with something I know fits me. I am however currently looking for a factory AT chassis setup so that I can put it back "stock" if the need/want should arise.I do like the rifle, however, question - why buy an AI (obvious paying a premium for what it is), then putting it in a chassis system?
Because the stock chassis aren’t great for PRS style matches.I do like the rifle, however, question - why buy an AI (obvious paying a premium for what it is), then putting it in a chassis system?

AWS Covert. Just waiting on the over barrel suppressor to get out of jail any day now. Need to mount the scope too.

As soon as I get it, I'll post some detailed pics.If it doesnt get anyone in trouble is there any chance of some detailed pictures of the suppressor when its released, I was thinking of something similar for my AT and would try and keep it as close to looking factory covert as I can.
