Some Saturday Afternoon Shooting @ the Sand Pit, Elite Sand Magic that color shoots the best!

Loaded up a new lot of Varget and Winchester primers for the 308, dropped the load to 41 grains to be safe.

Sam,
what bag rider is this and can where can I get one?

Right now it’s a 3D printed prototype. It works well enough but ultimately I’d like it to be aluminum. The design I have in CAD also has the ability to bolt on a weight to get it to 1#. This design bolts through the buttplate, but I’m unsure if going to a pic mount will be better as I don’t know if the atx and asr are the same as the ax.

That being said, I really like that it has a large flat surface area in addition to retaining the “hook”. I also made it sit lower than the AI factory plastic bag rider so you don’t need such a tall rear bag.

Yessir! I got some funny looks showing up to qual at 1000 with a 20" 308 but it was GTG. Hit me up next time you're thinking about heading out there, maybe we can meet up. I know there's a few others on here that are members out there and also shoot factory AI's.

Yea, there's a few of us members around here for sure. We should definitely go and bring all the AI's out!

How did you get your hands on the chassis in FDE, with thumbhole stock? That's like a winged unicorn.

Disregard...
I read into the specs as it having a one piece scope mount included in the declared weight. The barrel is easy enough to subtract.

If you go back a page, @trob_205 talked about what he is doing in his attempt to bring his AX down in weight and I assume that is your goal too. No one ask for a stripped down weight if their intent is to make it heavy.

Edit: Not sure if his is a SA or MC though...

That barrel is from Mile High. If I heard correctly, Adam said they had just completed a run for AI so I grabbed one and had it four days later.

I was tracking "AI" factory labeled barrels only came from WinTac. Anyone know if that has changed to include MH? (not a discussion of quality...MH is obviously more than capable of making hammers.)

This thread I linked probably has a lot of info in it that would be a good read.

New AI AX with non AI barrel?

Hello All, I went to pick up my AI AX today; I ordered it chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. The AX rifles come to the US without barrels and Win Tactical, a shop owned by AI make the barrels off of Bartlein blanks. These barrels are stamped with the mark AI on the barrel near the action. The rifle I...

Yep, I remember that thread. No doubt AIs can have barrels from other manufacturers... not exactly the question I posed. Defender’s barrel is marked AI... meaning it was spun by WinTac. MH uses their own marking.

Again, before anyone gets riled up... both MH and WinTac make hammers. Just pointing out it’s not a MH-spun barrel.
