    2021 Accuracy International Virtual SHOT Show coming soon!

    This is the production design. The upper is 7075 alloy and the mag section is 6061. This allows us to have high strength in the very light upper section where it is needed most. The design also allows for efficient manufacturing and accommodation of different length actions magazines.

    ACMX broken extractor bolt disassembly

    Sir, You don't need to dissemble the bolt to change the extractor. The extractor should be out until the retention lug clears the detent and then pull it forward. A small straight blade screw driver works best for this. If you are uncomfortable doing this please contact AINA @ 540-368-3108...

    AI MXMC 338 LM freebore?

    Oversized chamber - NOT! That term generally infers a big diameter, sloppy chamber in a rifle that isn't expected to have high precision. The chamber in the AI 338 Lapua rifles conforms to the CIP specification WITH THE EXCEPTION of the freebore length. We extended the freebore significantly a...

    The ASR and AXSR were developed for a USSOCOM requirement and are specifically tailored for U.S. armed forces requirements. The AX Mk III is tailored for UK, Europe and ROW requirements.

    Accuracy International AXSR's are HERE!!

    The adjustment procedure for the AXSR trigger is the same as for the comp trigger. It just won't go as low in total pull weight. The 308 bolts (and 300 WIN MAG) will be available in Q3. The limited edition ASR kits already have the 308 bolt. -Scott

    Bad batch of AICS 223 Mags???

    Hello MLC, As you noted in your last post, you are running the Ackley Improved .223 which is obviously larger in diameter at the front of the body. In your video, it looks like the rounds are stripping out too low due the straighter case body and the bullet is jamming against the barrel breech...

    Scoobaman, The .300 WIN magazine (P/N 0479) is shorter in length versus the .338 CIP (P/N 4808) and will not work in the CIP magazine aperture.
