The NZ army recently annouced they'll be purchasing the Barret MRAD, interesting that they don't seem to care about having commonality with the Aussies anymore.In this article I break down every bit of kit that will be issued with the Australian Defence Force AXSR issue.
Includes pictures.
The Australian Defence Force Accuracy International AXSR: Long Range Sniper Capability
With the Land Forces 22 conference now over and the announcement of winners of the LAND 159 Lethality System Program Tranche 1 now done and dusted, it is time to turn our focus to the finer details…precisionrifleguy.com
Wasn't that a few years back now?
Probably, the past three years have all kinda rolled into one....
I forgot where I read this existed, but I figured I'd ask before dusting off the hand drill...
Which company was it that offers the RRS ARC hole service for the AXSR RRS forend? AKA Which company is drilling holes in the bottom of the AXSR forend for the ARC system?
...or was I hallucinating again?

@Fred @ Bison Tactical drilled his AT-X I believe, he might offer that service.
Ah ok. Thanks
Moa scope? Surely you jest sir.....

Yea I just grew up with it since I was a kid hunting. Never got around to making the switch. Though it gets the impacts done at so that’s all that matters. What about you, your AO chassis making you shoot better?
Elite (Sand) Savage Master Race?I am better than all of you now. Sold my AI and now am rocking the Savage
That Spuhr may be worth more than the entire rifle. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that combo before!I am better than all of you now. Sold my AI and now am rocking the Savage
And I laughed at the tenuous mounting solution lol
Gonna miss seeing ol’ Elite Sand AX around here. Is the new ATX also the Sand of the Elite?
Me too. Hopefully the new owner will post some photos of it periodically lol
The ATX is not elite sand. It is actually black multi cam.

Is this the actual rifle? Or just representative of what you're getting?
No. It's the real thing. Buying Fritz's ATX.
All it needs now is a Vortex Razor.
I can odd if you can't even lmao this a joke tho. Keeping the mf tangent lol
You could go all out and rock a Valdada. Or CounterSniper.
Do you or anyone else that uses the thumb rest miss the fact that you no longer have the retention feature for the butt stock when folded?
So I shot my Ax with its AI 26” bartlein barrel today.
Only had access to FGMM 130 gr bergers, and some 140 gr match.
Rifle didn’t want to seem to shoot much better than an inch with these two loads…..
is the hornady match that much better of a loading?
I was expecting 1/2 moa, not barely 1 moa.
What’s your guys experiences with the fgmm loadings?

I did not miss the retention feature on my AX. But I only folded the buttstock to clean the barrel.
I can tell you that just shooting factory Hornady 140gr ELD I've been consistently getting less than 0.5MOA, so something definitely seems off.
I ordered a couple of boxes of the FGMM with the 130 grain Bergers. Should be here next week. I have shot the Berger made cartridge with the 130 several times with great (<0.5 MOA) success. Hornady 140 ELDM is my go to as it always shoots great.
I am unsure of his name. I do know it's the guy he uses for all his cerakote work that's local to him in Denver.
My “retro”, retrofit of the plastic Thumbhole stock folds left so I still have a capturing folder if I choose to use it.
Having said that, I also just use the folder to clean including on my Vision AT+AX buttstock that has lost the retainer to the thumbrest. Don’t miss it.
No sir, it's still long af and permed
Got the long hair with the mf Jesus sandals, peak AI shooter right there

Yo, crocs are my mf jam, but I have since grown up and rock the dudes everywhere
Have only fired 200 rounds through it so far (fire forming virgin lapua) but, it did put out a 10 shot 0.45 MOA group at 100m with 108gr ELDM and zero load development... It was 'prefit' by APRS (a reputable gunsmith) down here in Australia based off one of their shop AI AT's.
The 6BR is a 2023 project, hoping to get that going as the go-to PRS barrel.

As others have stated, I also only fold mine for cleaning. That being said, in my experience the AI folding mechanism is so tight that I'd say the retention 'feature' is pretty unnecessary anyway.
