    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Re: AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails mor Interesting. That GAP barrel must be a bit tighter than the factory AI barrel (logically true). What's the highest charge that you have been able to achieve without seeing pressure signs or getting a sticky bolt on your AW Zak? Are you single...

    I want to get a 338

    Re: I want to get a 338 For this platform, if it was me I would save up the extra $600 and get a Nightforce 5.5-22x56 in a reticle of your choice (NP-R1 is popular if you are an MOA guy. I have an MLR reticle on my 3.5-15x50 which I like if you prefer MIL). USO would be another great option...

    I want to get a 338

    Re: I want to get a 338 I would assume you mean 338 Lapua Magnum and not any other variant of the 338 caliber? Just remember that the word "Lapua" and "inexpensive" will never fit into the same sentence. This applies to any caliber but holds special gravity with the 338LM. A single example...

    Re: Accuracy International Pics Isn't the SAS brake an option on the AX's now? I had heard they were the "standard" brake now, but I can't confirm that.

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Re: AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails mor Interesting. I'm talked to a few people around that get the exact same thing with their AW's (308, 300WM and 338LM). They just FL every trip also and bump back the same as I do - about .002 - .004. I only get about 6-7 firings out of my Lapua...

    AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails more?

    Re: AI AW vs 700 style actions ...which fails mor Yeah, I get a sticky bolt on my AWSM 338LM towards the upper end of charges (loading .004 off the lands - mag. friendly less so obviously). I'm running the factory 1-10" barrel too, but I have a fresh Krieger sitting here waiting for the AI...

    Temporarily unable to load OR shoot! :(

    Re: Temporarily unable to load OR shoot! :( Oh man. That sucks so bad. I hope for a quick recovery so we can see you back out at the range again! If the LMT and TRG could talk, they'd definitely be complaining of abandonment : ) Speedy recovery Jim!
