    American Rifle's M2 Precision Bolt Action Rifle - The Balance of Power

    Siharitiria......Bravo Ted, BigJimFish also has a nice quick review on his thread about your rifle. If I'm not mistaken I was able to hear the drool running down the side of his mouth while trying to explain your brainchild. As probably everyone will be looking forward to the final product and...

    New Value for Old AX

    I don't get it, why not increasing of the price of the new line by 15-20% at inception and decrease the old by 10% instead of decreasing the value of the old by as much as 40%. This will give owners of current rifles the ability to unload a little quicker and purchase new and let everyone know...

    New Value for Old AX

    Bought mine in July for $7700. 7,000 and change after the 10% discount which I though I was offered for being "a nice guy". Not happy right now with either parties and I'm sure those who purchased around the same time I did are feeling the same way. Whatever the reason it just stinks when a...

    New Value for Old AX

    I'm considering putting my AIAX up for sale. It's a 24" Bartlein 6.5Creedmoor SAS break and It's fully loaded and in "Like New" condition. 7 months old and has 180 rounds through it. Now that Accuracy International has come out with their new line. What would you pay for the rifle described? All...

    Brady vs Manning...

    If Seattles defense plays like they did against Brees......nothing is stopping them. It all depends "who" shows up. Offense wins games, defense wins Championships!

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    Thank you Sako man for your time. Since Manatee is a distance away it won't be very soon but I do plan to go out there ASAP and try it out again making sure the conditions are much better. I would like to take "wind" out of the equation but we'll see what Mother Nature has to offer when the time...

    So with all said, Practice, Development, Equipment selection....etc., without patients and perseverance it means nothing.

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    I was considering calling a local reloader and asking him to help me develop the perfect ammo for my rifle which in turn I would start learning to reload what worked out best. But after listening to all of you I think I'll stick the the factory 140 AMAX till I get several more chances with...

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    Mike, I was my own spotter. The good thing was I was able to see hits as far away as 10 feet from the target, in all directions. The scope I used let me see this clearly as well as the target being surrounded by dry earth that left a nice puff of smoke. I dialed in distance and wind until my...

    It is a 24" Bartlein(1-8) and the rifle is from MileHigh. It has NOT been chrono'd.

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    Bill, Please elaborate. It is factory ammo Hornady 140 AMAX, shouldn't it do what they say it does? What would be my options if it doesn't? And why 2950? Don't mean to riddle you with an onslaught. Thank you

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    As I've been reading, more than shooting, about the 6.5 Creedmore I can't believe it is the problem since since I've only heard good things about it including terms like "Wind Cheater" with competitors even using the factory Hornady 140 AMAX as their "got to" ammo at comps. Again, the biggest...

    First time at 1000yards. Tell me what you think is the problem.

    I was at "Sea Level" or very near.....Manatee Range in Florida. I was using Factory Ammo "Hornady 140 AMAX". My scope is a March FX 5-40 which I am very happy and comfortable with. I am always working to better my technique from trigger to breathing and still have a ways to go, even though I am...

    Yes parallax was checked and adjusted accordingly, and coriolis was not a factor since range South to North. Thanks for chiming in, Cheers!
