I can certainly appreciate that but I got the impression you think the AT is better as a field rifle than the AT-X, am I miss reading your post or is there something inherently different in a field rifle vs a comp rifle in your opinion?
The AT-Xhas a lot more parts. Doesn’t mean it will be an issue, but more parts is more parts to come loose, keep up with, lose, etc.
More parts means more tools as they aren’t the same size bolts.
The action can be unbolted. That means is susceptible to user error when reassembling.
The comp trigger seems to be ironed out. But again, many more adjustments and parts to the comp trigger than the OEM.
The chassis is bare aluminum. Which means cold. Along with some distinct metallic sounds of it hits something the wrong way. Sound is never good if you’re not looking to be heard.
The forend is much longer than needed for a non comp rifle. Depending on situation, this can be a hinderance.
