I clean the bolt and apply an ever so slight amount of Hoppe's No. 9 Gun Grease to the lugs and bolt body. Work the bolt a couple times and wipe off the residue from the receiver, if there is any. Runs like butter
Light coat of M-Pro 7 Gun Oil. Bolt runs like it’s on ball bearings.
I put a tiny bit of TW25B on the lugs. Available on Amazon
To anyone that like the L96 video here’s the next video covering the AW
Got my flat trigger shoe from eurooptic today and the fit is perfect. My finger placement on the trigger feels better now and trigger pull feels ever so slightly lighter now that my finger is lower on the trigger.

do you have the comp trigger as well or just stock trigger with flat face?
Just a factory trigger that’s been tuned a bit.
Guess I didn’t know they have been available that long. I recently checked with two other suppliers and they said they weren’t available yet.
Nope, you're right, they weren't. I got a prototype back in February to try out.
Ergonomically it feels good.
Anyone know the issue with my trigger is? It's a New 2018 AIAX with factory trigger, unadjusted. After about 200+ dry fires and about 65 live rounds, the sear stopped resetting. The firing pin cocks on opening, and on closing, the firingoins slowly releases as I close. I have to cock, pull the trigger that "resets" the sear, then close, and the firing pin will stay cocked.
Has it ever fired out of battery on you (which shouldn't happen). Sounds like something in the trigger pack OR sear engagement. You have pictures of the bolt cocking piece and sear?
It can be adjusted but I'd honestly send it in for evaluation, depending on how comfortable you are with taking that on.
Nope none of those issue. After I get it to cock, and fire, I then have to cock it again, and before closing the bolt, I have to pull the trigger, there's a "click" and the sear rests fully so it can grab the firing pin, and then it can be shot. I took the trigger out and when I pull the trigger and manually depress the sear, it won't fully reset
Question for you guys. I haven't been able to find any info on a AXSA mag bolt face, so I'm guessing it just doesn't exist. When looking through Proof's AI Prefits, they offer a 6.5 PRC for the AXSA. I'm trying to figure out if this is a glitch or if building a 6.5 PRC on a AXSA is possible.
Gents,
Could someone with an AT take a few minutes and do a favor for me? I’m trying to confirm if the AT ‘male’ stock catch is the same part as on the AX. This is to allow the non-bolt side stock folding on the Obsession chassis I’m working on.
You don’t need to remove the part from the chassis, all you’d need to do is remove the grip skin panel and confirm the height of the part with a micrometer. The base of the part sits flush with the surface of the chassis.
Thanks!
Sam

Are these pictures taken on the nipple on your pre-14 or post-14 AX?
Post-14’ AX.
Interesting. They must have changed it on the AT and new AX. The AT has an unthreaded hole in the chassis so I know it doesn’t thread in like that one does.
Both of these are post 14
Do you mean some post-14 rifles have nipple directly threaded to the chassis?
It’s hard to tell from this angle but is that threaded portion part of the nipple or is it a stud that’s threaded in the back?
@samb300
Have you ever played around with a different pistol grip skin part that would allow for the use of various pistol grips (like how most chassis systems use an AR-style mount up for those that want to run vertical grips instead of the stock grip)? Sorry if that's been asked before, might have been overlooked in my searches. Thanks man.

I’ve thought long and hard about how it would work. It’s not easy, either by custom skins or by a bolt-on attachment. It’s possible, but not ideal, as the frame of the chassis itself is wider than a typical AR or chassis. That’s why the grip area of the new ASR is designed narrower than the rest of the chassis.
The threaded portion is part of the nipple itself- an extension. the body of the nipple doesn't have a hole for cross bolting.

Got my son an AW. Wish I got my first AI at 3 years old.
I believe the bolts are already nitrided / melonited, could be wrong though.
my thoughts exactly, waste of $$$
AI bolts are stupid slick, why bother trying to improve on perfection?
Are these listed on their website?
Well, here’s my latest group for the AI reloading bench. 
Nice shooting, I'm still amazed by these rifles! I walked out on my patio last Wednesday and shot my best group ever with my AIAT $350 .260 barrel. Also liking the Ballistic-X app

You sure you chose the right caliber in the app? LOL. Those 'impact marks' (green circles) should be the same size as the impact of your actual bullet on paper.
Example below, 1st pic was prone 5 shots (.21moa)
2nd pic off barricade using only gamechanger. 4 shots was .10moa, but the 5th shot made it .52moa lol. Yes, I have witnesses. It was at Rifles Only before the Brawl Match haha. Damn fliers.
Sawtooth Rifles 6x47L Barrel. 115gr DTAC RBT
Not hating. Just trying to figure out why it's bigger haha
Good question maybe I left it on .308?? I'll check. I know the red dot is 1/2" and the next ring out is 1". And I know I shot it with my .260....
UPDATE: I found my mistake, I was used to my other software and used an inch for reference instead of a half inch! I did it over using the corrected number. Thanks!

New SFP bolt came in for my AXMC. Took it to the range today and ran some factory Hornady through it. For factory ammo I'm pretty pleased with it.
Pretty stoked my primers look normal now
@Huskydriver mine as well. Might consider using Berger factory ammo or Lapua brass at some point.
Yes 6.5 Creed. 140 ELD-M
