Yup same with all mine.......
Elite Sand is still the master race, sage green is for poors and pale brown is just a desecration of all that is holy
Such a bold statement when there isn’t an ATACR in sight.
Such a bold statement from a guy that doesn't even own an AI...Elite Sand is still the master race, sage green is for poors and pale brown is just a desecration of all that is holy
Here I'll get this thing back on track... Sorry about my friend there, he's a heathen & doesn't know any better.
Sounds like he finally hit rock bottom right there... Hope he finds he way back on the path.
AT with LE stock and Sams foreend?
I still be shooting with a can, sometimes lolSounds like he finally hit rock bottom right there... Hope he finds he way back on the path.
May not own an AI at the moment, but I still recognize the best color to grace the world #elitesandmasterrace
Ummm this is the AI pic thread…..
Not the “I used to own an AI” pic thread
You’re either in the 12 lbs bolt lift gang or you’re not. There’s no in between!!!!
'Fly shoot' this year at my club, shot at 500 yards. My AI AT, with Thumbhole stock and competition trigger. I just missed the 'fly', but I was closer than I have been previously, maybe next year.
over here.....
Thumbhole LOOKS better, but the AX is a better stock in every other way.
You dare tempt the mighty God of Thumbholes, your grace? On Sunday football? I hope He is too busy watching to smite thee.
I preferred my thumbhole AT to my AXMC. Looks aside. Just more comfortable and better extension of my body feel. The AX with the height of the optic to clear the forend made the gun feel “tall” and more blocky if that makes sense vs the AT
Hoping the ATX I have now has that lower axis feel compared to the AX
Had I kept the AXMC I would have installed the thumbhole like husky did on his.
This is of course one man’s opinion. Like a manners stock vs MDT/MPA feel for each individual
Everything in front of the folding hinge goes to the AX or ATX vs the AT though. Better set up for accessories and NV capability
How do you like the ATX stock to the thumbhole AT?
Someone at my club had an AX stock fitted to their AT and they advised that with hindsight they wouldn't have done it. As mentioned above, they had to purchase higher scope rings which made the optic high compared to the standard AT stock. However, each to their own choices.
I haven’t got a chance to try it yet. Still need a barrel for the ATX. A few other things in life grabbed priority for a while for me so the ATX is camped out on the reloading bench
I mounted the same exact NF 7-35/spuhr mount that was on the AXMC onto the ATX. Just very limited time behind it so far but I can already feel the overall height difference. The bipod mounts closer to the barrel, the gun overall seems more “in line” in regards to the stock and bore. Also this ATX has the low action rail like my AT vs the high like the AXMC. So the optic dropped a bit as well.
Coupled with the ability to swap the grip and it almost feels like you put an AX in a press and flattened it a couple inches
But again I haven’t shot it yet. Just played with in the gun room and yard doing some dry firing
Let me know. I very briefly held an ATX at a shop and wish I had the AT next to it to compare. With the new short foreend on the BP version, I hope it comes available.
Any thought on just popping the barrel off the AT to test it out? Should be quick and easy?
After owning both the LE model AT’s with the AX stocks lost interest for me. Originally I thought it was the perfect setup and wanted one for a while. But after using both i just prefer the thumbhole
The thumbhole is a much more “one size fits all” style. So if you don’t like it or aren’t comfortable behind it you’re more limited on what you can do to solve it vs something like the ATX stock/grip
I could. I’m in no rush to mess with the ATX right now. Will be a spring project for me as winter in the UP of Michigan is setting in. So I’m just deciding if I want to have Bugholes spin me up a 260 barrel for it. Or find one in the px if I’m patient enough. Or just succumb to the pressure within and join the other sausage suckers in the 6.5 CM world again

I’ve been on the waitlist for a barrel or two from MH and Euro for a while now, dang shame they still haven’t come in
Px is your friend. I got my last Bartlein here and it’s a hammer.
Just measured a couple height differences and the AT bottom of grip to center of scope is 9” vs the ATX at 9.5”. Bore to scope center is 2.25” on the AT vs 2.5” on the ATX
These are more similar in feel than the AXMC was.
Both are setup perfect running the cheek piece bottomed out in its lowest position. My AXMC was maxed out in height and I had a wiebad cheek pad on it to compensate for extra height needed to get a good sight picture through the same exact NF mounted on the ATX here

A 6.5 is easy enough to find in the px. Some there right now. Otherwise @MOUNTIC has new takeoffs once in a while
AE MK l, 260 Rem, first time out this season, no joy but a beautiful day.
Playing around at Quantico today.
Garmins seem to be fairly consistent, haha!
I can’t find one to buy bro has two of them to make sure…
Check out any Archery shops in your local area.
All the rifle shops were sold out in my area, but reached out to the archery shop and they had a few still on the shelves.
A man with one timepiece is always sure what the time is…..Playing around at Quantico today.
Looks like I missed a great day on R4.
Have to flex somehow in the AI thread.
@xxflyingturtlexx It was reported in the Garmin thread that Bass Pro had them up again as of this morning.Bass Pro has been releasing them in small batches on line. If the price shows in your cart, you're order should be good. They are also trickling out to the shelves of smaller shops who ordered stock. Supposedly, the next shipment to dealers is late this week.
Perfect day for November, in the 60's with little wind and a straight up boil. Probably range poor the rest of the month with maintenance projects.

Thanks, I hate you.
Maybe I can sell my LabRadar to a fudd that hasn't figured it out yet.
The thing is I got the LabRadar retardedly cheap. I think I paid $450 from Brownells on a Black Friday sale.
Over the last few years shooting PRS I've tried to keep my gear pretty practical. As the competition gets way better I've realised this is a game. Not hunting. Not combat but a game. So I've slowly made the AT-X into a pure PRS Race Gun.
Today I added 6 weights to the outside. I already had 2 inside the handguard. I also added the thumb shelf. I might change the pistol grip for something more vertical later.
Now the force is balanced perfectly and weighs 9.9kg or almost 22lbs.

Try your local gun boards. I sold mine there for a good package price to a person who had always wanted one, but the $600 plus costs for accessories (external battery, trigger, case) was too much.
What is that bipod? looka Kind of like an atlas?
Well, it happened. It has been a few years in the making. A lot of reading these forums, articles, and talking to people. Thrilled to be in a position to join the AI community! Thanks to everyone for all of your contributions, good or bad.
Looks like a Ckye triple pull to me.
What mag and extension is that?
It is an AW magazine with just a base plate from an Aussie company called my mag. It is just to add weight to the mag to drop free and make it a little easier to grip for mag changes.
Posted in ATX thread to
Question:
I recently traded for a ATX. Came with a mag identical to my AT/AW mag. I see it listed on mile high that the ATX mag is the same as the AX
Both mags pictured are rock solid in my AT. Both however in the ATX lock up in the gun but if you grab the mag in the front you can pull it down slightly. Basically the tip of the bullet hits the feed ramps a bit lower. Mag locks there and you need to hit mag release to reset to normal height
Is this because it’s an AW mag and will an AX mag do this

Thank you
It does not have the lip. Figured there was a difference that I would at least notice between the two if the ATX was different
