For anyone interested in doing up a shorter length of pull ATX for a younger shooter I found out a gen1.5 is about a 1/2” shorter than a gen3 and if you pull the adjustable buttstock unit out and drill/tap one extra hole and re-attach the buttpad you can reduce the length of pull a total of 1.5”.
I found a donor gen1.5 buttstock and drilled/tapped an extra hole (circled in red). Fully extended it’s about an inch shorter LOP than I usually run.

Swapped the k525i for a Gen3 Razor just for the lads in here that hate em

Not to worry, we hated the Kahles too.

Awesome! I’m a Milwaukee native, and been a member at RCLRC for like 7 or 8 years. Are you planning on shooting any of the WPRC club matches in the area?

All you do is shoot as mediocre as you always do, and let everyone else suck more.

I'm using 178gr Hornady BTHP at the moment. Was going to drop too 175gr SMKs but might drop to 168s instead.

It's a mile away so probably, but then I'm not sure I'd be welcomed back after that.

Ah nice. I'm running AI Barrel with Factory Ammo so getting nothing like those MVs

2588fps with the 178gr ELDM BTHPs at 0c

 

[Choppahead]

I've put about 500 rds. through it now. It's a tack driver for sure. Not currently reloading so I did some load development with Copper Creek and we came up with a couple loads it really likes based on the 130 gr. Berger Hybrid.

I really need to take an updated version of that pic now that I have a 338 LM barrel and a PVS27

Decided to do an inventory because I reached into my ammo stash and pulled out a 20" 338LM barrel that I completely forgot I even had.
Apparently I have a pattern when buying barrels: A shorty and a long boi.
Two by two, hands of blue...
26" 308

26" 300WM
20" 300WM
27" 338LM

26" 6.5CM
24" 6.5CM (which I bought because the lead time on the 26" barrel was supposed to be 5 weeks and 4 months later I hadn't gotten it)

and now I know I need more SR brakes

Typical AI guys, like my buddy says... we AI dudes got barrels bolts suppressors for each day of the week for our rifle .

My crappy range, first day out in a while... busy, busy.....

Nice spring day, about 60 degrees, windy though. Warmed up the rifle on the tripod, then first group on paper from the bench. Wish I could shoot like this from the tripod too!

308, 168 SMK

How many of those barrels do you actually use?
And how do you handle the different scope zeros for each one?

Depends on the goal of the moment. But I have shot them all except the 20" 338 which, like I said, I kind of forgot that I had. I was going to fix that this weekend but I had some family stuff come up and couldn't shoot it.

As far as different zeros, I did take a day in January and swap through several of them to record the offsets. Each of my barrels has its' own dope book and the zero is recorded there. Elevation is relative to where the scope bottoms out, eg "73 clicks from bottom" etc. Windage is similar but you gotta be careful not to jack up the internals.

Once I get the rest of my data together I'll have a better system but for now I just picked the 26" 308 as my zero barrel and everything else gets offsets put in to the kestrel profiles. By the way, the difference in elevation between the 308 and the 338 is 2.7mils, which was surprising.

 

[Krob95]

The ol gaytx held its own finally. Pro tip. Make sure your kestrel does not have a 50mph head wind in it. It’ll give you dope that is a way off.

Thank You!
24x24 target wind was Left to right 8mph. Im excited i have 30 inch barrel coming. This ia factory one only 27”.

Thank You
Range is great. Will be testing 33xc hopefully soon at 3400 yards there.

Same place your vision probably came from

Although I must say, given current U.K. pricing you would be better off just ponying up and buying a new AT-X. Secondhand AT’s are £3k before you add the cost of the AO stock.
