Heavy AF. I haven’t weighed it. But it’s heavy by design. This isn’t a hunting backpacking rifle. It’s meant to be heavy. If you’re looking for light I really enjoyed my Q Fix. It was 6.2lbs with a carbon 16 inch 6.5CM barrel.
Took the AXSR 300 WM to the range today. Not too hot about 83 degrees, some wind. First groups out of the rifle. Bore sighted, 2 shots and on target. After shooting my groups I noticed the pic rail that the bipod mounted to was loose. Need to check this stuff on new AI's.
300 WM... my bad!
300 WM... my bad!
It has been divided up among a good many critters. Hogs, coyotes, deer....
Cheaper than a bass boat, better resale, and most of the time I end up making the landowner happy by squashing hit critter problems.
Dude, Hootie Hoo is universial. I could fly to Uganda right now, get in a truck and ride around yelling Hootie Hoo and throwing my hand up in a wave and it would be reciprocated.

Testing a used .308 barrel before zeroing the new scope with the 6.5 barrel
Old well used factory 7.62x51 barrel did good for 4 shots with Hornady 155 steel match till I pulled he 5th shot.
Hornady 6.5 AG 140s also did well for 5 shots in a 18” PVA button 6.5 cm barrel

if you had went with a sage green AI, all those 308’s would be in one hole.
Yeah yeah that’s the color I wanted but I am a Poor and eurooptic only had FDE unfired demos for $5700
Would probably be in one hole if I had time to shoot instead of work lol. I’m much more consistent with my DTs for some reason.
Shot this again today and added an Elite Iron bipod. I'm liking it so far.
1/2" group at 3 yards is 16 MOA haha@roamin dude you’re supposed to shoot from a little bit further back than that
The sage green group has always been a little bit different
All about those dump trucks and accuracy Internationals.....
You sage green Bois can keep it...pale brown for life

So the ASR and proof barrel get along well.
.29 MOA with the following 6mm Creedmoor
-virgin unfired and untouched Lapua cases
-Berger 105 Hybrid target moving 3041 FPS
-40.0 grains RL16
-CCI 450 primer
-seated to 2.806 COAL
-AI ASR
-Proof Carbon 6mm Creedmoor 24 inch barrel. Barrel had 136 rounds on it at time of record.
-SD of 6.7 and ES of 16
-altitude 9000 FT (Norway Flats, Uintah mountains, Utah)
All in all gents the ASR is awesome. I do want to say I have had zero issues removing any barrels with all 3 Mlok rails on there. I know others mentioned they don’t care for it. I like it. I’m fine with it. Just saying.

5 shots. No pics. We messed that plate up good after so nothing I can take a pic of. I’m going out this weekend though so I’ll get some I make amends. It was a no phone weekend in the uintahs where there’s no cell service. Hot as hell in Utah. 108 in salt lake on sinday.
measured old school with tape measure and math

If you live in Utah you need to come shoot with the *unofficial* ai utah crew

Anyone in this thread use multiple hoppers on their A&D auto throw setups? I need some help finding a stand for my second glass hopper.

Posted my question in the reloading section as well, has a little more detail and pic, but I’m not getting anywhere.
Thanks, Bro’s.
Spare Pyrex auto throw hopper stand?
I have a Pyrex hopper for my auto throw A&D setup. I bought a second hopper to ease the hassle of different powders. I know I’ve seen a stand for spare hoppers but I can’t find it to save my life. For those with multiple hoppers, are you using a stand, where did you find it? Thanks in advance.

You forgot to add “unofficial”, baby. Don’t get ahead of yourself...
Man I thought I really typed that! Edited for clarification!
I got twins teething right now so my life is a blur but rule # 76
I keep needing to tell myself that I can wait until I've at least shot out one AXMC barrel before getting a thumb hole AT... i hatelove this thread.
I have it there to act as a pad and so the brass doesn't mark the side of the receiver.
Did you notice a big difference in weight with the CF barrel? What does your setup weigh as it sits in the photos? Your rifle is set up the same as I plan to except for the bipod.
The 24 inch proof carbon barrel is exactly 2lbs lighter than the 24 inch steel 308 barrel. The gun is still heavy but it’s a little easier to move around. If I was custom ordering I’d do a 22 inch 6CM or a 22 inch 6.5CM barrel. With the hand guard length it seems that 18 inches is the shortest you can go with this fore end. I wouldn’t mind getting a shorter hand guard and a 16 inch carbon 6.5 and ride it around like the covert. Or at least have an option to do so
I don’t know the exact weight of the set up. But it’s heavy.

Took the 20” 308 barrel for a spin one last time before my next PRS match.
And yes, green ones shoot more gooder.

Seems like the proof prefits are a huge winner. Same pattern as the AXMC, right?
Yes. This is an AXMC proof pre-fit. I imagine proof will update it to say AXSR/AXMC. They MSRP for 1100 but can be had cheaper. I bought mine with 136 rounds on it for about half MSRP in the PX. I didn’t lowball either. I paid his asking. It was posted for like two weeks. I couldn’t believe no one had bought it. To me that’s a steal for a Carbon AI prefit.
