I put a zero on mine. I shoot 260 and 338LM out of mine. If/when the time comes where I would need more, I’ll likely get a mirror and be done.
I haven't tested mine, but people are reporting 36-37 mils of total travel with a 7-35 ATACR. If I have 31.5 mils of remaining travel from my zero, I could assume I have at least 4.5 mils the other direction, correct? Is it safe to say I have enough of a buffer as to not be introducing any mechanical/optical issues by being totally topped out in the elevation travel?
Those of you running a magnum caliber AXMC with the 30 MOA rail, and a Spuhr mount, did you go with a 0 cant rail or one with cant? I bought the 6mil/20.6 MOA Spuhr and with the zero stop set on my 7-35 Atacr, I have exactly 31.5 mils of elevation travel. I feel like my zero is pretty close the adjustment range limit. Should I run with this set up or opt for 0 MOA rail? With the 300 Norma I need approximately 22 mils to get to 2000 yards, which I feel will be the farthest I'll get an opportunity to shoot it.
I love the multi cam. I'd leave it and just go on the hunt for another set of skins. I just obtained a dark earth set for my AWSM. Now I can go green or tan!My "new to me" AI AW just got shipped out today. Very excited. This, I believe, is an early production Arctic Warfare circa 1993. The barrel is still original as well. Seems to be in good shape. The only downside is that the stock sides believed to be replaced with multicam aftermarket parts....or maybe it has been hydro dipped and original side is just underneath... I will find out next week when it arrives.

I think they were all shooting standard calibers. But I know of a few dabbled with BR calibers using HRD mag spacers. I’m not team AI but that’s what i got to feed very reliably out of my AX. But then again I got 223 to work when everyone said it wouldn’t.Someone said team AI was shooting 6BRs. Anyone know if they had to modify anything other than their mags to shoot 6BR without feeding/ejection issues?

But HRD mag spacers make easy work of BR calibers.
To clarify, you got your AX to eject fired 6BR cases reliably (or one of the 6BR variants)? If so, did you have to modify anything other than use the HRD mag kit?

I ask because there have been a few people that have had 6 Dasher barrels spun up only to ditch them because they have ejection issues with the short cases.
I’ve ran 2 barrels in my AX
1 in Dasher with 1600rds
Now in BRA and a tad over 1000rds
Didn’t have to do anything to the rifle, just the spacer for the mags. It feeds & ejects flawlessly.
AW & AX mags onlyDo the hrd mag kits work with 5rd aics mags or only 10rd aw,ax,at mags?
Keep us posted!
Hello AI owners,
Im considering purchasing an AI in 338 LM. Ive purchased scope bases from Milehighshooting in the past, but never ordered a rifle from them. I would appreciate any info on ordering a rifle from MHS, or anyone else, before I
place an order. Feel free to pm me or post up here.
Thank you!
Gar
Or Paul. I delt with him(or it might have been he delt with me) when I bought my AX308.Mile High is good to go, call and talk to Mike.

It is the Sawtooth Arca rail. I've not used the RRS plate, newer or older version. I think the Sawtooth works plenty fine. I preferred the Sawtooth over RRS because it put the bipod a touch farther out. 26" barrel plus 9" can is out there, and I wanted the bipod as far forward as feasible. The RRS is slightly thicker, but you still have the magazine messing with you. I've thought of folding the bipod backwards and using the bipod thickness to match up to the mag, but I've never tested it beyond a thought.Is that the Sawtooth ARCA rail? If so, how do you think it compares to the RRS plate (if you’ve used it) for working off a bag on a barricade?

I’ve got something cool in the works for you AT owners. It doesn’t extend past the front of the forend, but that’s on purpose because of the RRS/Arca spigot mount I have which is a better solution to getting the bipod farther out.
It does, however, extend all the way to the magwell with no “gap,” and it also facilities a 14oz internal steel weight.

Sam, I really like the bipod being on the same plane beyond the chassis. It’s much quicker for stages that involve rain barrels.
Any chance of an extended version?
This paired with your Spigot is soooo perfect!!! I was just talking to my buddy about going Arca and ditching my Hog Saddle.I’ve got something cool in the works for you AT owners.

When can we expect to see these Sam?
Those chamber flags are hot. I need details...
I believe this is what you’re looking for. Unfortunately I’m not sure that they’re approved for all matches due to the fact that they don’t have a protrusion into the chamber. I know they’re not approved for use at my local match.Those chamber flags are hot. I need details...

Nice! Approx. how much lower profile is this going to be compared to RRS Gen2 rail? I. Like it that it doesn't have the gap like the RRS railI’ve got something cool in the works for you AT owners.
