So im thinking about having a 6.5 barrel spun for PRS style matches but im not sure how large of a shank will the AXSA i have will take. Just want to confirm its good for 1.250" under the rail.
 
The standard barrel is 29.4mm at the action (well my Lothar Walther is), so I imagine you will be fine.
 
I've had a couple barrels spun up for my AT rifle. I went with a 1.200" shank to better match the original barrel on the rifle. Like the M24 contour.
 
I think you would be fine but what muzzle attachment/supressor do you rock and what length you thinking?
 
On this im thinking 26" I have a few short sticks already and im going for speed on this one.
 
I think you would be good to go then. Only concerns I would have had was diameter of the muzzle attachment fitting to the barrel and having enough clearance to account for barrel whip not touching the end of the hadguard

Finishing a MTU/Heavy Var at 26" too thick for 5/8-24 threads on the 419 breck you think?
 
For an AX/ AT/ AW/ AWM = 1.250"

For an AXMC/ PSR/ ASR/ AXSR = 1.350"

Yes, I run 1.250" straight on my AX and AW.

And 1.350" straight for the big bro's
I just place a order for a straight contour barrel today and realized I might be screwed when it comes to a muzzle break fitting flush with the barrel. Any breaks out there that won’t look like shit? It’s 1.250

The Sidewinder will probably look pretty good on it. It’s larger than the hellfire so it should go nicely with a thicc sticc
 
Yea that Area419 break OD IS 1.275” hope I didn’t make a bad decision ordering this fat ass barrel

The area 419 collar and adapter are about 1.25ish.
They’d look fine on a 1.25 truck axle or coffee table glamour shots.
 
Then snag a hellfire at 1.1”

either way...

performance > aesthetics

...but of it’s for IG, then stick with aesthetics 😂

@Huxtable_hurt_me28 Thats a A419 Sidewinder on a straight 1.25

but as @NoLegs24 said ive seen hellfires and other .9” breaks on straight pipes too and honestly they look even better imo idk 😂😂

People still care about brakes being flushed?

You'll be fine... with either brakes from APA or A419

@Huxtable_hurt_me28 Pay no attention to this comment... this is a guy that just a few days ago was debating the finer points of red vs blue vs FDE AT-Xs colors on the AI thread...

Nope if the brake collar is too thick over the barrel taper you get a smith to contour that shit down to .001" boy

You're going to have to qoute me on that. Don't recall. Plus, I'ma have all the colors anyhow 🤷‍♂️

Except blue, I don't think I can make that work... lol
