I was just putting together my new AI AT and I was installing the thumbhole stock and I think one of the screws is missing and maybe the washer. Does anyone know the specs on the screw and confirm that the washer is missing? I bought it from sporting services in the UK some years ago. Who would I need to contact for the screw and possible washer? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
I had nothing but problems with AW mags (tried all 9) with HRD spacer kits and Lapua 6BR brass with 108ELDM. Probably an 80% stoppage rate (At least one stoppage out of each magazine, generally towards the last few when spring tension was easing off). It was amazingly accurate, easy to shoot but feeding from double stack mags didn't work.
Now with the 6GT, Alpha brass, 110gr ATIP' it's maybe a 0-5% stoppage rate per magazine (From the couple of hundreds of rounds fired, it's maybe had 2 or 3 hiccups, which were probably at least partly my fault short stroking). Without spacers. Absolutely a different kettle of fish. Running them at 2830fps, not pushing them at all. I think 6CM is too fast for our ranges, 6BR didn't feed, the 6GT is a good in between with plenty of gas left in the tank if needed for hand loading.
I heard he's living with some poors terminus trying to get aw mags to actually work lol... Imagine going from running aw mags flawlessly... To well... Not
sorry @Krob95 you are welcome back any time homie
Nah fam he got too good for us. He can stay over thereI heard he's living with some poors terminus trying to get aw mags to actually work lol... Imagine going from running aw mags flawlessly... To well... Not
You got any of them AT thumb rests by AO? Hook a brother up
I run 6bra flawlessly in the vision chassis with hrd kits...
With no shim or whatever else AI is using on the gen 4.63v.2.1 lol

My experience with HRD kits and AX mags:
6 Dasher will occasionally nose dive on the last round if I run the action slow. If I run the bolt fast it works 100%.
22BRA fireforming and formed cases will 100% nosedive on the last round. However if I run the bolt as fast as possible then they work 100%.
I dunno why but I find reliability with bolt speed. And I'm guessing Dasher does better than BR/BRA due to the longer body.

I actually got 6.5cm to feed flawlessly from AW’s in my terminus / manners TCS. And by me, I mean the head gunsmith at MHSA lol in my newest TCS, 308 feeds so far from AW’s with my impact.I heard he's living with some poors terminus trying to get aw mags to actually work lol...

I hope to rejoin the ai master race again. Ya boy just got married and got back from Italy though lol. I’ll give you a timeline you’re used to with AI. Expect Q3 next year but will actually be Q3 of 2026 (maybe).
Who are you again? And stay outta my country. Next time you visit, you need to ask my permission.
I’ll tax you for that Terminus and we’ll call it good for now
You just went to Italy and you call yourself poor? Sheeshlol just a poor man with no AI
Shoulda let someone know I got peeps all over there and a castle you coulda visited
Damn! That’s what I get for getting rid of the AI lol got any peeps in Scotland? 
I think we are going in march or April lol

No. Not at all. Only inDamn! That’s what I get for getting rid of the AI lol got any peeps in Scotland?
Dammit lol guess I’ll make another trip out that way. Since I’m here, have a photo of the pinnacle of my AI ownership

BR and wildcats a great. Go for it and don't be put off by possible feeding challenges.

This mirrors my experience, which was funny because someone at the range would hand me their AW HRD mag and it would run 100%. I ended up rednecking an anti tilt tail onto the HRD follower and that worked but I moved to 6CM for better feeding. I’ll probably go back to BRA after I run out of CM barrels in the safe next year.
So what is the best feeding reliable 6mm to run in a AT with AW mags that has a good barrel life? I like the 6BR but
Hearing it’s hit or miss with mag feeding

BR and Dasher. I’ve always had really good luck with ax and aw mags with the HRD kits.
Now that factory Dasher brass exists there isn't much point in shooting a BR anymore. The slight extra case capacity allows you to shoot 4350 instead of Varget which is nice.
I used to think that till I tried a BR, although a 22 BRA. The BR case is even more forgiving than the Dasher. Every Varget load I've tried has been single digit SDs and half inch or so groups. And that's fireforming or shooting formed cases. I'd expect a straight 6 BR to have that BR magic.
With that said I do like the added performance in a 6mm that the Dasher has so I'm not moving away from my 6 Dasher anytime soon.
I've had multiples of both. The BR isn't magic. What definitely isn't magic is buying Varget. Plus it's harder on 6mm throats than 4350.
PRS has landed at Bisley in the
A massive step for us!
Got another bolt for the AT.
What bolt face diameter conversion should I get?
I’ve already got 308, 6.5CM, 6CM and 22CM barrels.
I own 223AI and 224V bolt guns already and I run every bolt gun I own on the thousand yard range at Quantico.

I went with 0.535" to run short action magnums. And based on what you have it sounds like a good fit for you also. I've started with 6.5 PRC but also have everything needed to have a barrel cut for 7SS as well. Accurate Mag WSM mags have worked perfectly for me. Fritz at Black Canyon Customs did the bolt work for me and I'd recommend him.
I think I came across your YouTube channel yesterday. Recognize the rifle. Awesome rig
Yes, I bought a spare 308 bolt assembly and Fritz opened it up. Mag bolt on the far left, I'm running 6.5 PRC in my AT-X.

I'll have to see if I can find another LH 308 bolt and do the same. I want a 6.5 PRC for my AXMC. Already have the blank. Been waiting for a year for an LH 300 WM bolt and unlikely I will get one. An LH 308 may be easier to get. I can always take the 308 bolt that I have an convert it. I can shoot 308 and 6.5 Creedmoor out of my AT
Bad luck on being left handed
My secret trick to sourcing a spare bolt is to pay in full on a back order then wait 14 months and one day it showed up.
EO only asked me for a deposit. It has been 12 months. Maybe I'll get lucky soon.Bad luck on being left handed

Only reason I started the channel was because when I was trying to find out how to shoot PRS in the UK about 2 years ago there wasn't much to find.. less than a year on I've got sponsors and brand affiliations so all going really well!
I haven’t yet but I will. Every once and a while I come across AI’s on YouTube or the AI facebook page then recognize them from this threadThanks

I have an ATX I ordered a vertical mdt grip for. Hopefully be here tomorrow
I'm probably going to get an MDT Elite Grip soon too.
Yes I spent hours trawling through every page of this thread when I signed up looking at everyone's AIs
Too many tabs open lol
Throwback Monday

Throwback to a dad/daughter moment when I was dry firing. Even has the drooling open mouth technique just like dad 
No, I am waiting for the 300WM bolt body but now that I know you can rework a 308 bolt body, that will do as well
i follow you as well.I'm probably going to get an MDT Elite Grip soon too.
