I'll snap a few pics when I get home of the finished product. It takes me longer to find where I put my damn dremel tool than it does to mod a few mags. As for destruction you are only putting the slit in the lip. The carbon disk is just the right thickness that when you hammer the flaps flush it's the perfect gap.
GM308M2 is all I shoot in my 24" factory AX308 barrel. Last time in Chrono'd it was 2668fps.
Shooting out of my 24" barreled AT and using my bud's Labradar, I measured an MV of 2656 with an SD of 10.9 (20 rounds consecutive).
Expensive dryfire or not , it’s growing on me
Reloads not factory..
I got 185 jugs to go 2730. No pressure signs. Didn’t get to try it out to 1k yards yet. I’m sure it’ll have no problem goin that distance.
26” AI barrel
Berger 185 JUGS #30418
Peterson .308 srp brass
46.2 gr CFE 223
cci 450 primers
coal 2.945 (just under mag length).
Garmin Xero
Very nice. Do you have a similar formula for 175 grain SMKs
40.7 imr 4064 with a 175smk at 2.820 coal in lapua brass (41.7 in winchester) is my M118LR load. Does 2700 out of a 24" and 2560 out of a 19". Gupical groups out of the 19" and honestly any gun I've put them through with this load. (The black x one is truthfully not part of the group)
Possible, might be a bit ambitious but I'd say 2775ish.
Might be able to pick up my TRG before the weekend and might be able to tell you for sure.
I don’t. Was going too, but the bc on the jugs looks better on paper then that of the 175 smk. So went with the jugs instead. Though, I did snag a box of 169 smk. Which has the same bc as the 175 smk. Should be able to get the 169’s close to 2800. 26” barrel 1:10 and reloads really gets the 185’s going though. Some use MR 2000 to get it in the 2700 plus range with a 20” barrel.
I really need to get my Vudoo out. It’s going to have a birthday in my safe coming up…
Haven’t even fired it yet
Reunited with my old AXSR.

For those from before in the AX vs AW mags. Apparently I didn't do that to AW mags but I have plenty of aics mags I did it to. 2 modified AX mags next to a standard aics mag.
Ok, two question:
The first is a pretty obvious question, but wanted to confirm.
AT wanting to run a clip-on needs:
Second Q:
Anyone have pics of a 1.5” scope mount on an AT/AE/AW on the low rail? Preferably a Spuhr 4002, but I’ll take whatever.
I’m asking that b/c I’m not sure if I’d go with a clip-on or just a thermal scope. If I go the latter I just want a visual of how high the scope looks.
The first is a pretty obvious question, but wanted to confirm.
AT wanting to run a clip-on needs:
- AT Night Vision Bracket
- 20 MOA Night Vision Rail for the AT NV Bracket
- High AI pic rail for scope
- And here is the question: 1.5” rings, right?

Screwed on some unknown round count $100 barrel in old man caliber.
Hornady is the king as usual. Shame they discontinued the steel match. My scar really likes it
I know. 3 shot groups. But I don’t have the skill / patience I used to
Oh no cherry picking except for excluding the 5 shoter I decided to go rapid fire on

AI AE Mk I, 20 MOA low rail, 20 MOA IMUNS, PST Gen II 5-25x50, Vortex extra high(1.54") rings, PVS-27. Not the best pic, but I could mock up a living room pick if you need it.
Yeah, just a side shot without the NV would work. Just seeing how high they look with that low rail. I like high rings (1.5” to 1.4”) but looks factor into it a bit more than usual as, well, it’s an AI.
1.35 to 1.5 if you want to be on the plane
1.5 with low rail.You still got that at?
Attachments
What’s the difference between that and the high rail. If using a superior 1.3 centerline clip on ?
Kick ass! That’s a perfect pic. That height on a low rail looks good.
I know, but if I go that way I’ll just attach the high rail and NV mount.
My green AT in 308 with a 24” barrel arrived today.
All I can say is, “Now I get it.”

Did you do the chest high drop test yet? You can’t say you get it til you’ve done the chest high drop test.
Did you struggle to cycle the bolt like all the PRSers like to complain about?
Since the AT was built as a sniper weapon system, and not a PRS rifle, I judged it on its own merits.

This is the AT with a Spuhr 4002C with high action rail. This is what Eurooptoc told me what I need for be planar with NV clip on. The 20 Moa rail is still on back order.
Mile High had the 20 moa front rail in stock as of yesterday (I ordered one).
Holy crap, another LH AI in the wild, in an aftermarket chassis to boot
Nothing except that is the exception and not the norm... Just giving general advice on why they run a high rail and it's designed for a 1.5-1.35" scope mount to be on plane with what were the std night vision specs at the time.... You do you boo
Yeah the chassis is fantastic. Perfectly happy with this and the thumbhole over an atx. Kudos to the guy who came up with it
Mile High just sent me an email "Upgrade to precision" when I already have an AXSR.
I'm calling for congressional hearings. We need an Inquisition!
Somebody needs to be sent to the reeducation camp.

Only 3 serial numbers younger than my other one
And
Turns out AI won't swap a bolt head, they want to just replace the whole bolt body (for $800 +). Looks like I also have a large firing pin despite the ad saying it was sfp.
I'm not overly upset given how little I paid for the rifle, but at this point I'm thinking I'll just have LRI clean up and bush the bolt, even if it won't be pretty.
Not sure what thread but a member asked about LRI about making bolts.
I said I’d buy one if every size asap.
My alerts on things I follow on the hide don’t always come through so there might be something going on.
If you find it..tag me in
What can is on the AXSR? Looks like a 338 Ultra SR, but for some reason looks longer…
