    AT-X First Production

    @tomirwin So those of us in line for an AT-X in 6.5 - will it be a simple barrel, bolt, and mag swap for 22LR? Also, is the NRA Blue a standard Cerakote, or is it custom mixed for AI?

    First off, thanks to all who helped me pick out the Remington 700 5R as a birthday present to myself. It is truly a fantastic rifle and easily outshoots me. Which brings me to my question. I have about 200 rounds of 168gr FGMM. Plus I've received 500 pieces of brass from a friend that no...

    300 BLK Model-7

    Re: 300 BLK Model-7 Please forgive me if this is a dumb question, but what's the point of the 300 Blackout on a bolt? I thought the purpose of the 300 was to get a .30 to work well in an AR, which from what I've read it does superbly. What would this do in a bolt action that couldn't be done...
