Nope, about 50 degrees F too cold.
I'm E NC as well between the coast and Raleigh. It's spicy but I was expecting worse. I'm sure the coast is not having fun though.
Hit that bad boy with an electric impact!

Is it time for a #7axisImpactWrench person to slowly emerge from the swamp?
Hell, maybe it’s a good idea. I dunno.
Well, if it's raining too much to go shooting, might as well get hammered.
Thanks for all the help, as promised here's my new AXSR setup in .308 with a proof 18.5. Helios QD TI.
That's a sweet rifle. Congrats! Glad I could help ya get into one. Enjoy it!
Thanks! You were very easy to conduct business with would recommend again 100%.
Been a long journey to get every part from scratch. New action. 20" 300wsm and multiple 20" 6.5PRC bull barrels. Opening up bolt face. Vision Chassis and backend in AI DE. Fixed back end chassis to stock pieces and also a folding hinge. Rear action screws had to be sourced and machined to fit. Brass washers for action spacers. Mag catch and pins. Folding plunger, etc, etc. The effort into this has been large with support from many other folks. Grip for the aluminum skins are all that's left. Dominus K SR ready to go. Tangent Theta will top it off.

I just want to thank @MOUNTIC for donating me this setup. You're cooler than the other side of the pillow!
Just waiting for it in the mail.
Really, he’s an amazing person who will no doubt go straight to heaven when (and if) he so chooses. Rumor has it the Dali Lama looks up to him and attends his yearly retreats. Jesus phones him up for tips. Peace out.
That's beautiful, can't wait to see it when it's all built!
I wish I had a spot to shoot LR at night. I'd 100% invest in a good clip on. Very nice rig
Nah. Everyone’s just using their STAR card.
“When in doubt, STAR card out.”
Damn good buy, Sir. I would be willing to back you up that it was a very shrewd, but technically possible "deal". You'd do the same for me, right?
I'm working on getting an AT-X bolt modeled right now. Will be at least another week or two before it is close to done. I don't want to take the bolt fully apart so I cant model the bolt head and body separately but It'll be as good of a model as you can get without doing that.
I don't have the ability to manufacture them but if someone has the capabilities I'd be willing to share the CAD file as long as something is done with it.
I rather not take everything out and post a pic of basically a new car on the ground. lol
... over $3k in extra bolts there.
"Listen, honey, I got a fantastic deal here. Its an investment, really. I only paid three grand but in reality it's worth a little more than that. If you and the kids decide to sell it after I'm gone, get it all appraised first. These are pretty rare and always going up in value."

US Military Searching for New Long-Range Sniper Rifle in Bid to Keep Edge over Russia and China
U.S. Special Operations Command is searching for an "Extreme Long Range-Sniper Rifle" to replace the Barrett M107 and Mk 15 sniper rifles currently in its arsenal.www.military.com
Yeah yeah Imma picking up what ur laying down
“Sweetheart, I like to buy low and sell high.”
My wife was with when I bought my AT. Told her I wouldn’t find a rifle like this for cheaper ever and should jump on it. Based on current prices it’s turned into a great investment
$3000
You can tell her it's worth over 5k now..... at least that is one delusional guy thinks his AT is worth on the FS section. lol
Haha I saw that
There’s is an ATX creeping to the low 3’s there now. Figure that won’t last much longer
Mines getting buried with me. So what it’s worth makes no difference to me. But AI prices certainly don’t seem to go down very often
Unless you have an ATX or pre 14 AX at the moment. The pre 14’s are almost given away now
I want someone to buy an AT-X, remove the action and put it in a cheap savage stock.
That somebody could be you. Word on the street is there is an ATX in the EE in the low 3's. Not me... I'm also getting buried with my AT-X.
I mean, they already took the AX, removed the action, and put it in a cheap MDT stock to create the ATX….
Buddy I know has purchased a ton of firearms and his wife is none the wiser. He tells her he's going to the range which he leaves with a empty gun case, when he returns the gun case has a new firearm in it so the wife never sees him bringing in a new firearm.
Fukin genius
Have a buddy who says as long as he buys basic black, the wife can't tell the difference.
It’s wild to imagine my wife busting my chops about my hobbies
My wife knows all my guns and is super enthusiastic about them. Y’all must be living a tortured existence
My wife neither worries or cares about what spend money on. I don’t ask her and she doesn’t ask me. But guns aren’t her thing. Personally, I don’t think I would last in a marriage where i have to ask permission or forgiveness if I spend money.
Mine doesn't care what I do as long as the bills are paid and we have money for house things and family stuff. After that is whatever.
Luckily all of my stuff (95%) has appreciated in value so it's worked out.

My wife doesn't care, but she might be surprised to know what things cost. She knows they are not cheap and has been asking for her own so she doesn't have to "borrow"
Right? Who lies to their spouse or tries to deceive them about their interests? That must be hell to upkeep.
If you have to lie about or twist how much you've spent on a legitimate interest or work equipment, that's shit... Might need a more cunning Skunkworks fund and cover story.
Fortunately, our business supports shooters and creates opportunities. If bills are being paid on time, the family is provided for, everyone is happy and there is growth... She doesn't ask & I don't tell.
Now, with SHOT looming... If only AI would finally release those filthy WSM & 223 bolt bodies for the AT!

You think you spend a lot of money on your hobbies. Women in general spend more money on stupid shit that will make our hobbies look like your weekly gas fill up.
And is there any confirmation on the 223 conversion or rifle from AI?
