Accuracy International Picture Thread

Anyone know the exact combination/recipe for Pale Brown in Cerakote? I would eventually want my MLok and 20MOA rail to match.
 
I grabbed a used AXSA for a project…. As if I need another project. I trolled the thread for a long time trying to decide on a color. I like the look of elite sand and I like a two toned look but man there aren’t any two toned post 14s to look at so I went out on a limb. I home brewed my rendition of elite sand (ghetto elite sand) this morning and went for it. It’s hard to capture the actual color in a picture and I’ve never seen elite sand in person but I’ll take it. It’s less tan than it looks in pic 1 and it’s not as light as it looks in pic 2. Either way I’m relieved as a hobbyist level cerakoter that it turned out good and I don’t have to blast it again and start over lol. Now we wait for a scope and barrel so I have an excuse to post it again.

GES > PB & FDE

Looks great man. The only two tone ES I’ve seen is the ES AXMC-LE. That black and GES is really nice.
 
Anyone here running the Dependabuilt bag rider on their (non-PB/FDE...eww) rifle? :)
If so, how do you like it and which did you go with? Full boat or finger?
The full boat is slightly more adjustable than the hook version, the hook however is gives a bit more grip with a bag.

You mean like this? Yes. Yes I am. The finger one works well for me, I like it and it’s very solid. Would recommend

Anyone know who makes the rubber magazine bumpers/pads?

I cracked my AXSR's 308 plastic base during a reload over concrete. I took a page out of the VA's playbook and used superglue and tape to put it back together....but would like to see if there are rubber slipovers that might help prevent it on the other mags.
 
Life hack if you’re coating an AX- Knock the sharp edges off of the forend attachment area so you can use the sawtooth arca block and make it look less unfinished. It felt kind of wrong to take a file to the chassis the day I got it and I didn’t get quite it as perfect as I’d like, but it definitely makes it look more natural.

Def seems like an easy job for the 7axis Dremel
 
I love the “1.5” that chassis was my “fake AI” in the beginning lol

Actually scouring the net to find a short action Aics 2.0- folding square back

Easier to find a good wife lol
 
Running a 300 prc barrel spun up by Eric at Blue Mountain Precision. Great barrel!

Last weekend, at Whittington Center, first time I had her out. 1200 yd/1000 meter white Buffalo in the clearing....super nice to shoot, super happy with the purchase.
One of my buddies shot it, remarked on the ejection of the brass- "man this thing HATES brass....sure is smooth!"
Had to agree, the ejection is robust, bolt throw is smooth.
Once again, very pleased, all of the AI the praise is warranted!
