    Rifle Scopes Best available 1/2" pic rail riser?

    I just picked up a DTA and I've got a few scopes I'd like to keep in their AI or NF mounts so I could potentially swap them onto an AI AW I have as well. so I'm looking for a small riser rail to make them fit on the DTA but I'm not sure which one to get. Not looking for a QD solution and how...

    Good resource for AI versions/history?

    Re: Good resource for AI versions/history? Many people ask for the date because they believe the older AIs are better made compared to the new ones. A rep from AINA commented here recently on how they have actually updated tooling an whatnot as time has gone on and that the rifles are...

    Accuracy International barrel change kit?

    Re: Accuracy International barrel change kit? Don't remember exact prices now but when I priced one a few years ago it was way cheaper to buy a thunder beast arms action wrench, snap-on torque wrench, tubb barrel vice, and a set of .308 ptg gauges... I mean like several hundred dollars cheaper.

    AIAW barrel neded

    Re: AIAW barrel neded AWM I'm assuming ? 3 folks can do it: GAP, APA, and Dave Tooley can custom cut you a barrel. GAP usually has Bartliens in and the other two will definitely (they have for me) work with a customer supplied blank. AINA is another option but I do not think they are...

    AICS new skins=Viperskins rip off!

    Re: AICS new skins=Viperskins rip off! Youre wrong. Heres why: AI had this in the works at the minimum last years shot and Roedale has had their pistol grip skins (albeit for their very similar chassis) out for a few years. Anyways,<span style="font-weight: bold"> I asked Stacey last year if...

    Re: AIAW barrels Sorry George, didn't mean to speak for you. Hopefully my numbers/info wasnt too far off as our conversation was quite a while ago and my memory sucks sometimes. Just like to add my barrel and my friends barrel Moon did both turned out fantastic.

    AIAW barrels

    Re: AIAW barrels GAP, APA, and Dave Tooley can make AW barrels. GAP (per George) likes to have the AW in the shop the first go around as they claim thy have seen around +/-.002" in headspace in various rifles over the years. After the first go round they don't need it again. AEs were a...

    UGRADE your AICS in FDE!!!

    Re: FDE Viperskins IN STOCK... Michael, what is the fitting issue regarding the AE skins on an AW? I have an AW and an AE and the stock skins are identical. I'd like a pair but I'm curious what would make the AE version not fit..?

    Loads for AIAE-175 and up

    Re: Loads for AIAE-175 and up 44.4-44.6gr of varget with a 175 smk in a lapua case is often a node for people. my AIs liked it as well. my hottest load was 45gr varget with a 175 smk in my 20" AW. brass life wasn't great but I got good velocity for a short barrel with that. for primers I have...
