Well. My new barrel is finished and got the text saying she’s ready for pick up. The brake and scope aren’t mine. My TT is on my vudoo and my can is at home. Fritz got it done 2 days earlier than quoted, and his photography is A-1. I have no reservations it’s going to be a hammer!

Sweet rig! Yes Fritz is a great dude. I'm having him do another barrel for me also. Top notch.
Thanks man! He’s gonna be my go to guy for sure!
Has anyone found a finish that’s close to pale brown? Got a 16.5” 6.5cm barrel ordered from PVA and almost added the graphite black cerakote but figured I’d try to play the color match game first.
Rust-oleum Nutmeg is a perfect match

Hell..yeah!! That beats $100-150 cerakote jobs lol 90% of the barrel will be covered by the hand guard so I’m not worried about it being super durable.Rust-oleum Nutmeg is a perfect match

If you use a good primer, it's actually very durable
Sounds like you have experience @Huskydriver . What primer do you recommend? BTW I half ass regret the rail trade after the 16.5” wants lol. I just got the 13” Victor Rail in the mail and I’m a fan so all is well!
Just gave the barrel a good wipe down with a scotch pad with acetone then used the rust-oleum high temp primer
Some really nice rifles in this thread. I don't post many pics, but I took this pic for another thread so thought Id share here as well. 300 WM a buddy built for me a couple years back on the M2013 action.
That does it. I’ll hit up Home Depot this weekend!
FYI...
EuroOptic just added some AX LE 20MOA action rails to their site.
Going to assume that these are long action so you can run 20MOA on your #Discontinued AXMC and pop on the new AXSR RRS forend for the continuous cant.
...Thus giving you at least a taste of the AXMC LE style setup.

I love me some shooting, but I hate me some load development on a new lots of powder. Roughly MOA with fliers thrown in. Going to play with seating depth tonight.

I rarely post on here but have been learning and enjoying others members experiences for some time. I was fortunate to get a AI from a member on here and wanted to share.
Does anybody know the AT/AX action screws thread pitch off the top of their heads?
What powder you running?
Thanks amigo!
Not to get off topic because this is a pic thread but VV N150, and Varget. I like the speed of Varget but I'm getting primer cratering at 44.1 grains. VV I'm at compressed loads at the same grain weight with no pressure sign but it's about 50 FPS slower.
Good to know
I'm no expert by any means but throwing this out to anyone interested.
I've had GREAT luck out of IMR 4451.

308?
Yup 308. Peterson SRP brass, and Fed 205m's.
Took my son bowling on Sunday. Instead of balls we used Amax 750 grainers

Takes something much harder and thicker to open up a 750 grainerI would have expected more damage
I think I know where those 205Ms came from.....
My 175OTM var get load is 44.8 (Lapua brass & not an AI), you may find another node around 43.5gr.

They are still being anodized. Matt hopes to get them back next week.
Well, I sold my ARC match rifle this week so I'll be strictly rocking the AI for the foreseeable future. Makes things easier with 1 gun to choose from. Now, my only decision will be dasher, 25cm, 6cm, or 6.5cm barrel.

You didn't sell that rifle, dude, you gave it away, haha!

Anyone a gunsmith in here or know a gunsmith I can ask some questions about the AXMC/AXSR?
Curious how much space is supposed to be between the bolt/breech ring and the barrel face. Was talking with a gentleman about it and it had me wondering what the correct space is. We were talking about the differences in a standard two lug and the breech ring.

I wanted it to go fast but didn't expect 14 minutes. And the guy that bought it couldn't have been a better person to get it for a good deal. His 1st PRS rifle. Im happy about it
