    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Correct, that is the AI factory 1:12. It likes the 168 and 175 gr SMKs. Our range only goes out to 600 yds, so that works. The mount is a SP-4001. Zero MOA and 1.18" high. I was very fortunate to pick up the AT ('14 LFP) and PMII last year on clearance from MHSA. Great guys who were very...

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    Took my .308 AT out today after the big storm. Best group was a 5-shot 0.37 MOA at 100 yds. Ammunition was 175 gr. FGMM. This thing flat out hammers.

    Rifle Scopes Bikini covers

    Nightforce x2. Fits my S&B 5-25x56 with sunshade like a glove. Couple of wraps of paracord keep it attached to the scope at all times. I throw a scopecoat over it for storage and transport to protect the tube & turrets.

    Sako TRG 42 or AX338 or AWM

    Sorry, I didn't read your last post all the way through. The AXMC I ordered yesterday came to $6085 shipped. In addition, AJ is kicking in 4% cash back, bringing the OOP to $5842. With $1500 for a SA kit, that brings the total up to $7342. A folding AT will run $4500, plus $2700 for the TRG for...

    Sako TRG 42 or AX338 or AWM

    For the price of the AIAT + TRG42 you could get the AXMC and have some change left over. The AXMC will run everything from 6.5 CM to 338 Lap. I love my AT but the AXMC may displace it.

    Massive AXMC Sale!!

    Both PRC rounds use the 0.532" bolt face, the same as the .300 Win.

    Massive AXMC Sale!!

    In my case, it was ammunition availability. 1. I already have several hundred rounds of .300 Win FGMM sitting on the shelf. (The rifle I bought the ammunition for went up for consignment to buy the AXMC.) 2. Handloading on my single stage press is a chore. I do it only when I want to wring out...

    Massive AXMC Sale!!

    Ordered a .300 WM in Elite Sand from Brownells this AM. Shipped @ $5842 with the cash back from Active Junky was too good to pass up. Thanks for the intel.

    AI AT ARCA Swiss Rail options

    According to HRD's website, their plate is universal and just requires different mounting hardware for specific platforms. They have hardware to mount to the AE/AW/Legacy AICS.

    Thank you for the clarification. I had forgotten that detail.

    Suppressors Help pick a suppressor. Omega vs Resonator vs Other?

    So, in my small collection I have a SiCo Hybrid, DA Sandman S & K, and six TBACs. The TBAC fit and finish are consistently superior. For a qd mount, Dead Air's Key Mount is great. I converted my Hybrid from ASR to Key-Mo. For total flexibility, the Hybrid is good. Can mount on everything from...

    Suppressors Supressor Newbie

    The CB has two huge advantages over the DT. One, tighter lockup due to the larger bearing surface area. Second, each brake acts as a thread adapter. My Ultra 9 CB swaps between my AI (M18x1.5 thread), Badger Ordnance and Rem 700 (5/8x24 thread) and AR-15s (1/2x28 thread). TBAC makes the best...

    The DT version weighs the same as the CB + brake. They are machined the same, the DT is a CB that has a brake semi-permanently thread locked inside. TBAC can convert an existing Ultra from one configuration to the other for a nominal shop fee.

    Weatherby Magnum action options

    Re: Weatherby Magnum action options Why not go with a 7mm Rem Mag? You've already got a long action and won't have to mess with the bolt face. Just a simple barrel swap. The 0.532" rim dia belted case was first used on the 375 H&H Magnum in 1912. The following cartridges are all based on...

    Suppressors Thunder Beast questions??

    Re: Thunder Beast questions?? My 30P does a great job of recucing recoil. It makes my 308 bolt gun feel like a 22lr. My Blackout and 223 ARs feel like BB guns. My buddy has a 338P for his 338LM and it does a wonderful job of taming the beast. Either way, you can't go wrong. Beware: TBAC...

    Which Rem 700 Do I have

    Re: Which Rem 700 Do I have I used the same gun as the basis for my build. It shoots <1 moa with handloads. You can adjust the trigger to be fairly light and crisp. Instructions are available on the web. Mount a decent scope and you should have a shooter that will take you a while to outgrow.

    Where the Varget at

    Re: Where the Varget at Stopped at the local sporting goods store on my latest trip to Utah. Grabbed 8 lbs of Varget and 4000 BR2 primers. Not one piece of 308 brass to be found, though. Everything around Denver has been picked clean.

    Rifle Scopes No more ERGO?

    Re: No more ERGO? I've wanted a ST-10 EREK/ERGO for several years. The decision by USO to consolidate their product line gave me impetus to buy one now, so I snatched up one of the last ones Midway had in stock. It'll sit on my SPR until I can buy another bolt gun to put under it. Dang good...
