This was a first for me with any rifle. It just so happened to be one of the most expensive rifles I've ever purchased.
I actually had that happen to me mid 22lr match long ago. Mdt chassis cup wasn't in spec and dumped it muzzle first into the rocks.
Checked my 2015 AT today though and it checks fine. Snapped and pulled really hard without issue.
Does yours have a plug in the skins where it’s an option to add to the chassis.
Mine are both 2014 AT’s. My DE has it just like in this pic. My green one has the spot for it. Just have to screw one in. Could also put a plug in the skin to cover it if I wanted as well
Mines a folder, I've got a plug on each side.
I'll have to pull the skins off and see if its threaded so I can attach my own.
Does any one know if you can get limited rotation flush cups that'll fit for this purpose?
Grovetec have a bunch of limited rotation options but nothing I can see that'll attach via a centre screw.
Shameless plug, for anyone looking to buy an AXMC, mine is up for sale.

Any experience thoughts on AI AX PSR? Seems factory "tanodized"? Got a line on one but don't know much about them. Have a lot of experience with Remington PSR that won the PSR contract. Not sure why AI lost our as seems a better system as far as barrel change and better bolt/receiver. Thanks
1) If you can get a PSR, get it. Don't waste time. It's now a rare rifle and an incredible shooter.
2) AI needs to stop pushing for their competition trigger in military contract rifles. If they hadn't, they would have won. Both the PSR and the ASR.
So the PSR had a competition trigger which created problems? Like failure?
The PSR didn't have any issues. The MK21 program simply didn't have a winner, and the contract cancelled due to a lack of proper government management of the contract program in choosing a rifle, essentially.
Has the PSR rifle contract been cancelled ?
Has this happened , or is it just a rumour ? any one know ? Cheers Chris

The ASR used a competition trigger for their submission, which was not included in the commercial offerings. They had ONE failure and from that, was not chosen for the MK22 program. But also, because of background shady politics for Barrett to win.
In short, the PSR is an incredible rifle with all it offers and if you can get a full deployment kit, it is 1000% worth it. ALL the MK21 submissions were and are better than the current MK22. There's reasons why the US Army Rangers have ditched their MK22s and are using Remington MSR MK21s now, which you'll see at the International Sniper Competition.
Thanks much. From the article looks like they were steering the contract to whom they wanted - not what was best.
You hear a lot of reasons why the AI wasn't picked. Too heavy, too expensive, supposedly one trigger failed ect. I bet a lot of politics and money were exchanged under the table on why the Barrett was picked. Even look at all the other new contracts being rewarded. Sig wins most of them and I think most of the new Sig products are junk.
Agree. Saw it happen all the time in Mil /Fed gov. They have to make it look legit “fair and open competition” but then find ways to disqualify those except who they want-so ends up sole source but they can’t say that
Question on the AI PRS - has magazine adapters to use .308 in the long action. Anyone have experience with using and AI mag adapter? Any issues? Thanks
They work fine, never heard of any issues with them. But if I were to do it again, I would buy the ASR mags. No need for the mag adapter any longer. But the 308/short action ASR mags are expensive and sometimes hard to get.
So you are saying I could buy the ASR Mags for short action and use in the PSR?
Yes. PSR isn't any different from the MC or ASR in terms of mag fitment. PSR is basically a MC that has been anodized and a couple of small trim pieces. Functionally, it's the same rifle.
Shot a match this weekend for the first time in open since before 2019 and first time with the AT. Managed a 8th out of 42 shooters which I'll take considering the above. Pollen was on another level, 10 minutes out of the bag and already had it accumulate. Winds were very weird, truly switched between left, right and head wind and 0mph to 10-12mph. No shooter had the same wind which made it a more even playing field so buddies couldn't help each other. I enjoy ROing but it kills the ability to get any action shots. This is all I got.
Also...saw a gray ops mag fly across the stage after about 5 stages of malfunctions. Was enough to make me steer clear lol.

I have here twin hottie rifles. Why can’t I have these issues with chicks?
Oh yeah, I’m fucking ugly.
