Dat 520us tho....

i know you get sensitive so i will shut up

 

[xxflyingturtlexx]

Definitely needs to be shorter but I like short barrels for my use. It wonder if that part of the chassis is available or if it is interchangeable with the r700 short forend

Even with 24-26” barrels i prefer shorter forends; balances better without autistic amount of weights

I’d cut it down View attachment 8484331but I #reachout

What scope mount height is this? I'm looking to get a ZCO 5-27 someday and wondering if 1.5" height on the scope mount is enough height for the optic to clear the forend's rail.

Thanks.

1.5” will clear forward rails.

It’s a 1.5 on the factory (short) action rail.

Are you kidding? SB over japanese every freaking time brah.... Tbh the 520 us is probably one of the most versatile badass scopes ever made with dtii turrets. Image isn't as great obviously as a full size scope but the size to performance is hard to beat. I doubt I will ever sell my 520s

Well I grabbed a 4306 and slapped it on. Yeah it’s pretty sweet - when I was 17 I always wanted an AI with a SB on it so I guess that ticks it off the list.

Got the TT back from service and redid my barricade. All in all a good weekend.

 

[DoggoNO]

New to the forum so don't know where else to post this. Have an AXSA and I am trying to remove the buttstock from the chassis. Tried with heat but the screw for the flushcup and 1 of the screws closest to the action is completely stuck. Anyone have any idea on how to get rid of it?

 

[Hennig]

More heat, good quality wrenches - never had one that I couldnt get off.

Pics of the exact screws.

LH Tap is always an option.

[Mr. F]

That head is toasted so a few options

You can get a small bolt extractor and drill a pilot hole, and the thread in the LH extractor and take it out with the help of the heat gun.

You can also drill it out in drill size increments to the point that you can use a needle plier to pull the threaded chips away and then you re-run the same spec tap thru to clean up the threads

You can just drill oversize and install a helicoil

Also spot weld a spud/small diameter threaded rod or a nut to it and take it out that way.

Or use a small disk on a rotary tool and turn it into a flathead bolt and go that route.

On all of the above (except A and C, apply kroil or your favorite penetrative oil, just mindful of applying heat after applying the oil.

 

[DoggoNO]

Thank you, that's what I was afraid of. Would you reccomend the same route on the smaller screw (that connects to the flushcup)?

 

[beetroot]

Heat and a decent hex bit should be all you need.
The key is to not mess up the head, as once you've slipped/stripped the head you are in screw extractor/drill it out territory.

If you have a impact driver could be worth giving that a go, with heat obviously.

 

[BurtG]

Always helps with stubborn bolts / screws , to take a hammer and tap on the socket/allen/torx a few hundred times


if all else fails looks like you can just drill the whole works out on the one above.

 

[Dr. Strangeglove]

I've always had very good luck with left handed drill bits. Drill your way in then angle the drill so the side of the bit can really grab onto the side of the hole you're drilling and it should thread right out (with heat to defeat the adhesive obviously). If it doesn't work, well hey you're already drilling out the bolt.

 

[VSP968]

Most likely there is epoxy on the threads of the screws…

I use MAPP gas , a block of wood and a big hammer to debond everything.

Heat it until it smokes and smells like burning hair.

Don’t freak out if the shiny aluminum frame goes flat when it’s hot. Just smear oil on it after it cools. It’ll be shiny again.

Use a good 3mm allen socket to remove the screws. Wait until you heat everything up to remove them. They probably have epoxy on the tapered head and on some of the threads.

What pray tell happened to the tt?

He just wanted to have them give it a once over... No specific incident.

So that was originally the plan. Until I was doing my ELR train up. The parallax knob was shifting under the 300PRC recoil. Didn’t do that with 308.

So I sent it in the Monday after the match. Wanted it ready before entering the end of season match schedule.

 

[Dr. Strangeglove]

Friend needed to borrow a rifle so it was good to get the AT out again at yesterday’s WAR rifles match

 

[MK20]

And unlike most PRS guns, the AI is indeed a war rifle.

An actual sub-moa rifle at 800+ yards is a rare sight!

You must know some one special!!! Your scope isn't drupie like my sub moa model....

In my second PRS match, in quite a bit of rain, after I tanked a stage where I couldn’t see my misses and wasn’t mature / experienced enough to have a plan for this, a very kind RO came up to me and said “Your shooting was extremely consistent — it was consistently one mil low.”

I think it's just old age..... performance issue.

That's exactly what he should have done and every one else on your squad if you are new

Pray tell, what is that little mini-bag looking thing you're running on the ol' whale hump there?

 

[Kopfjager1]

I firmly believe that new shooters should receive corrections during the stage, provided theyre clear and concise and do not cause further confusion.

That’s G56 classified sir.

…but also discontinued. It is essentially a padded skid pad that Velcros on. Really great for tight portholes and when you don’t need a bag but want hard on soft

You should tell whomever made it just how many times you've been asked that question. I'm not even paying attention (it's not something I'd need) and I've lost count. Maybe they should crank out some more...

Correct. Most match directors say that during the brief

 

[Edsel]

I know this isn’t the proper thread to ask this question, but it’s also the one which probably has the greatest traffic…

I haven’t been keeping track for some time after having gotten comfortable with my current AIs…

…but starting with which model / year did Accuracy International forego the use of epoxy in bonding the action to the chassis?

 

[vh20]

I'm not sure about their other models, but for the multi-caliber platforms it was when they replaced the AXMC with the AXSR in 2020 (I think it was early 2020).
