Nothing is "wrong" with it. I run them on most all of my short actions. But in my opinion, my Gen 2 Fat Bastard on my 300 Norma reduces recoil more than the sidewinder, and does so with less backblast.

I would wholeheartedly agree with that statement. The Fat Bastard on my Norma has been the ticket.

My laptop shit the bed so I can’t refer to the flash drive that came with my AXSR. Is the torque valve on the large frame quick-loc barrel the same 49 in. lbs. as the small frame AT/ATX?

Thanks guys.

Yes

 

[OzzyO20]

Yes

Thank you, sir.

I traded AXSR barrels with a member on here, and the tenon appears to be damaged. Would this need to be repaired on a lathe before attempting to fix the barrel to the receiver? Is the whole thing trashed?

 

[Bacarrat]

OT question, but what insane reloading tray is that?

Area 419 300 piece 308 based cartridge tray.

I'd send mile high or AI USA a note asking.

I would think someone who chambers barrels can fix it. Will it ever be right, probably not, however I would think after smoothing that out you would never notice a difference had you not known about the damage beforehand. This might sound caveman, but to be honest you could probably do it yourself with some patience and a little time..

 

[Tex68w]

Were you made aware of this damage prior to the trade?

If it was any other rifle I’d be right there with you, but not this one.

I looked at the photos I received prior to the trade and believe it possibly occurred in shipping. However the box does not appear damaged. At this time I don’t believe anything nefarious has happened on the other party’s end.

I'm going to be the odd ball out here i believe but I'd take a fine hand file to it and just knock down any proud protrusion. That's a non critical part of the barrel and the bolt face should be inside that outer part and not touching it.

If it was mine I'd contact the seller and see if I can get some cash if you are really upset about it (I wouldn't blame you if it was undisclosed) but in the end I'd do it myself like I said above. Just go slow and only knock off the proud parts and smooth it out.

Yea..sucks it looks like shipping did it. I have a guy about 30 miles from me that i have chamber a lot of barrels that i would take it to.

I always use a hard plastic cap on the end so this cant happen.
Hope it works out for you and you aren't screwed.

Based on that one photo it doesn't appear to be damaged at that point.

Damn, just get a small hand file and take that burr off. That is a non critical barrel dimension. It's fine. Fucking screw it on and shoot it.

This is what I’d do as well

Bet you wouldn’t say the same thing for scratches on your Porsche

I’m back baby. Been through it the last couple years. Sold the ASR kit and now I’m back with an AXSR. Bought this second or 3rd hand girl here on the hide but she suits me. Oddly I prefer the paint on this to the paint on the ASR. That federal brown was shiny. This DE is flat. I like the flat.

I need to find a few things:

- 20 inch barrel (300NM or 6.5CM preferred)
- 22 inch barrel (6CM, 6.5CM, 7PRC or 300NM)
- bipod. Thinking of going TBAC but sold out everywhere it seems. Don’t like accutac, I’m still an old school Harris fan so may end up there for now till I can get a TBAC.
-Mlok forend
- short forend. I want to be able to run a 16 inch or 14.5 barrel. Need a shorter forend for that. If anyone has a lead on that or the Mlok forend I’d sure appreciate it.

I've got 2 atlas cals I'd like to offload if that interests you. Oddly enough I always end up back on a harris.

Got barrel chopped to 17” and threaded 9/16x24 for the old Tac Ops can. Zco is mounted but the rings are super low so I’ll get it swapped to the Spuhr mount when it comes in Friday and hopefully finally shoot it and the xc this weekend.

 

[Edsel]

…I’ll get it swapped to the Spuhr mount when it comes in Friday…

I really miss the older, blockier Spuhr mounts.

In particular, the really long ones which held on to the scopes further from the knobs.

I also miss the classic form factor of the Arctic Warfare Super Magnum.

But that’s just me…

“Hit it with your purse” gang was right. Talked to MHS and they said the same thing. Jewelers file and a few stones later it’s in the rifle. Very surprised how soft it shoots. First 10 rounds down the tube, and the last un-suppressed rounds it’ll see.

Always good when the problem isn’t as bad as first thought. Love those types of problems.

I think your talking about the 6518 contour. Has a really short breech length and then a quick taper down to like .900" diameter and it's .900" at the muzzle correct?

That contour would be lighter than a M40 contour.

Yeah, that’s it if you’re talking about the lighter AI barrel contour. My factory 20” 308 has a real short breach length and tapers fast down to .88” at the threaded shoulder. Thanks!!

Not sure what/who's #5 contour you are talking about.

Muller’s

What sucks is that $1 of filament and 1.5hrs of print time on a 3D printer could have prevented it
