New Glass for my AX308 - Minox ZP5 5-25 MR4
Hopefully you shoot the match with a little bit longer barrel
Ok Sam. Here is a longer barrel for you. This is my 26” 6.5cm. I’ve got the bridge on now. And installed the bigger weight.
You should take pictures of nude women. If I had your talent, that is what I would be photographing
Thanks man. This is just quick stuff with my phone. My parents were professional photographers. And when I was younger I borrowed one of my dads older cameras and got into it due to my car hobby. Actually had stuff published in calendars and was hired by companies and websites for stuff. But mostly was cars with half nude women. Haha. But I ended up stopping due to my ex wife
Got my Accuracy Obsession chassis all mounted up!
Love that Dark Earth, and I'm loving the thumbhole stock with the chassis. Old school meets new school.
Thanks man! It completely changed the handling of the rifle and will be awesome for matches!
Been stupid busy with life, but finally got out my new to me AIAT a few weeks back.
Not gonna lie, wasn’t sure what all the hype was about while I was dialing the scope in. Then started pulling sub MOA groups without trying and understood what all the hype was about lol.

I want to put a 6.5PRC barrel on my AT. Has anyone successfully opened up the bolt face enough to accommodate the PRC family of cartridges? I heard @trophyhunter may have done it? Any info would be appreciated, thanks!
I got mine working well in 300wsm
Nice!! So in theory, a SAUM could also be done? Who did you have open up the bolt face for you?
This is a great news. Are you using the regular AW/AT magazine without modification?I got mine working well in 300wsm
Are you offering it as a service or a one time thing you did to see if it could be done?
Took a picture of the AXMC in "the wild" today. Comparing hornady match and berger factory ammo out to 1000y (can't handhold in our current living situation so im stuck with factory ammo). The Berger 144g 6.5cm was averaging 2858 with an SD of 5.8 over 60 rounds. At that speed the Berger took 0.5 mils less elevation than the 140g hornady eld-m @ 1000y. Felt good to got 76/80 at 1000y with a 1-11mph wind from the 8 o'clock direction. Still can't decide which PU bag i like more. Both the ELR and the 3d elr work fantastically.
How about this one.. I picked this up out of a few that were sold and it struck me as "different" which is why I grabbed it. The cheekpiece has a single button and is spring loaded VS 2 allen head screws (or knobs if upgraded). The rear also has a button for adjustment and not a allen wrench. It has the buttspike and a single port break.
It is a 2006 AW in 308. Mounted a real hog on top of it so I can see what she will do.

It is but out of all of the AI's I have managed to go through over the years I haven't ever ran across one.
An update on ELR with the AXSR....
The 33xc is working great on the AXSR platform. I settled on a fairly mild load of 123 grains of H50BMG with the 300 Berger's. Velocity is right at 3150 and recoil is very mild with the TBAC 338 ultra. I shot a 1/2 moa 5-shot group at 1000 yards yesterday at 5.1 mils of elevation. I'll be back out in Kansas in a couple weeks to stretch it out to 2 miles, so I'll report back then.

That's a slick setup man! Does the bolt catch on the mag follower on the SR's? You just popping the head down in the mag when single feeding? Kicking around chambering a 338AI for my MC, what barrel did you use, 1.350 straight?
I put a chamfer on the follower so it doesn't lock anymore. The barrel is 1.35" dia. for 8" then straight tapered to about 1.1" dia. at 32".
Awesome, thanks man! I don't know why i never thought to file the back edge of the follower, I just took it for granted i was going to almost get my finger stuck or drop the rifle trying to reach my finger in there.
I like the bolt catch when I'm mag feeding and didn't want to permanently alter the follower so I found a free STL file online and printed a sled for my 338LM mag.
So the ASR kit mags all have followers that don’t have a bolt catch. Am I missing something. Wouldn’t you want to know when you’re empty if your life depended on this weapon? Just curious. Here is a 308 and a 300/338 Norma mag magazine side by side.
Also... I cannot say enough good things about the flat trigger shoe. It just feels right. Breaks at 90 degrees.
AT with AX folding stock and Accuracy Obsession chassis.
Put my 16.5” 308 barrel on with my can. Hopefully hitting the range again soon. Need to zero with the 308 barrel for class with @lowlight and @Enough Said next month.
Actually @samb300 upped it to its current length before I ordered my rifle and this barrel. Had he went longer I would of just got a longer 308 barrel to work with it. But I love my little shorty. So I’m happy he went with what he did. But boy does it make it fun to change the barrel. lol.@RS14 , so YOU'RE the reason we have a 'short' handguard!
I’m right there with ya man. My SBR the suppressor is just about flush with the hand guard. And my 22Lr trainer. The suppressor is actually in the mdt acc forend
