AICS AX build

[no1ryno]

Ok, i got a couple questions on a build im going to start soon. What i need to know is, will there be any issues with using a bighorn LA for 300WM in a AICS AX chassis? Also if i run a 24" barrel how for would that extend past the for end of the chassis?
Thanks in advance for any help on this.

I believe the standard tube (forearm) length for the long-action AICS AX is 16" (that's a nominal measurement; they're actually an inch or so longer if I recall correctly). If you measure the barrel from the breach, that'd give you roughly 6" ahead of the forearm, not including any muzzle devices.

Ok, that helps a lot thanks. What about mag cut? Does the action need to be cut for regular mags or AW mags?

If you are doing a 300WM build, you'll be using single-stack AICS mags. No action modification should be required with the standard "non-CIP" mags.
