How is the GT feeding for you? thinking about making the switch after this season
I have two different kinds of followers on my two magazines (I really need to take a photo). My factory mag has the follower where it tapers off towards the front, and the ES mag in the photo above the follower is much less tapered. Both feed well BUT, the factory mag with the tapered follower I did have one hang-up so far when I cycled the bolt slowly. Please bear in mind that I've only got about 3 complete mags' worth of ammo through each magazine so my opinion 6 months from now might be completely different if I start experiencing a lot of issues.
I ran gt for a year out of my AI and got two buddies doing it now. Zero feeding issues for any of us due to the cartridge. I did have some magazine issues but just due to a weak spring that would of failed any cartridge
Fuck. Of course they are.
::Sad ES Noises::
What’s the matter? Are you a poor, or an AI owner? You should consider yourself lucky to be able to pay $11k for the chance to own a green rifle.
Wait wait wait are you admitting you actually love the Lord’s color but chose an AISR in imposter elite sand b/c that’s all they made???
Whoa sorry everyone. Don’t know how that happened. Must have been the new update. Yea that’s what it was.
Sage Green? More like gay green am I right? Right?
Right guys?

If only certain deadly dismounted people (and their like) could take a ribbing…well gosh darn it, the world would be a neat-o place, by golly!
Everyone tells themselves “it’s just a phase” or “I’ll try it out cause the other guys did”Whoa sorry everyone. Don’t know how that happened. Must have been the new update. Yea that’s what it was.

There’s no shame to dabble in elite sand only to come back later
Sometimes I’m the Elite Sand. Sometimes he’s the Elite Sand. Sometimes we’re both the Elite Sand… it’s hot.
Ewwww. 308 or death ma’am. Unless it’s for money, then it’s 65CM
Not color coded perfectly but ey - functionality is
forget about it!
Dat 636 doe
That flip cap doesn’t get in the way cycling the bolt?

Yea...my OCD would never allow that
Dat elephant tho.... Nice schmidt what reticle you go with?
Don't be sad. I have both SG and ES, love them both.
msr2 - mainly cuz the other option was tremor5, I think.
ES-curious, in other words?
Sounds like a funny tag-line under the username!
The colour is actually just Sand.... they prefixed it with Elite as they were speaking about the people who would buy it
Oh niceee. I didn’t know the 520 did the 636 illumination tumor. Now that I look closer at the top of the ocular, I sees it.
Have no fear fellas I am keeping my AI (wont make that mistake again unless its for an AW/AWM). Have any of you felt the action of a recent production TRG22A1 and compared it to your AI? Trigger differences?
Might be offloading some of my clone collection and I'm thinking of having a second rifle to my AT. Kinda browsing Cadex, the TRG or just replicating a GAP Gladius.

I've owned a trg22 and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another. My only real complaint was the single feed magazine was harder to load the then double feed of the AI. However the trigger is way better then the factory AT/AX, much more inline with the comp trigger offered.
If anyone's been in my situation with finding it tough to source an arca rail for their AT, I just wanted to give a quick shoutout to Sawtooth Rifles because they have some sweet R970 rails in stock. This is the one that looks very similar to the old RRS BAI-AT2 rail that sits flush with the rest of the fore-end, which is now discontinued. I wish RRS would make the old BAI-AT1 rail again as I feel that one had the best aesthetic even if it wasn't long enough for competition use.
I honestly don't remember. I didn't even know about the heavy bolt lift problem on the AI's until I started reading about it on here.
All the PRS bois complain about it since cycling the ultra heavy AI bolts knock them off their targets. Also hence why everyone now shoots a ultra light 6mm barely going 6.5CM speeds.
bolift…bolift…so, you’re part of a crane rental agency in Driezum, Netherlands…but your crane only lifts 12lbs? Shouldn't that be in kg?
I’m so confused.

Never had a problem with the AI bolt lift either. Was really just curious where it stacked up. Odds of me getting hands on any TRG before purchasing are super slim.
I played around with a used Sako green TRG22 once, at a Cabela’s of all places. I don’t specifically remember the bolt lift, but it didn’t stand out. I have a hazy recollection of it being like a stock Remington.
Now I’m going to Hell.
Bolt didn’t glide back and forth like a Tikka, which surprised me a little.
Nice rifle, lighter than an AI but still stout. Liked the stock.
I do notice my AIAX’s bolt lift, but it doesn’t bother me.
Hopefully people that actually own a TRG will chime in.

@carbonbased this does help actually. Appreciate the input!
I wont clutter up the AI thread with this anymore though. Anyone who has any information they care to share please shoot me a PM.

I disagree with the balance point. To sit on a bag, my Axsr has weights to get the balance where I want it. Just prone shooting, not needed.@hafejd30
Starbridge,
The AXSR is easily moveable with a 26” steel AI 6.5CM barrel (and hellfire match brake) so an 18” CF with a can will be no issue unless you have a physical impairment. My PRS barrel is a 24” 308 with a hellfire match, and it’s very easy to move around.
I pretty much only run short action rounds in my AXSR with the only magnum (so far) being 300PRC. I have yet to get enough free time to scout areas in southern AZ where I can really get to play with the PRC so my AI pretty much lives in 65CM or 308. …and why I haven’t dropped the cash on a 300NM barrel.
The long action vs short action throw isn’t an issue and isn’t noticeable after the first range session. I know you didn’t ask about that but figured I’d chime in with it.
I’d say get the AXSR if funds aren’t an issue, especially if you’re going to have access to a range with that capability. Very easy to maneuver and it just shoots really damn well. Me not so much
Oh and the balance of the rifle is just perfect without the addition of weights and whatnot.
Love the AXSR.
Ah. I’m happy with my balance point but I’m running a 24” 308 barrel. I’m not running any additional accessories though.
Mine on a PSGC and some 3/4”:
