Call me ignorant, but i'm looking for some education on the matter.

I love the AICS chassis setups more than anything else. However going over their prices i can't help but be blown away by them.

I know they aren't that much more or even on par with the high level stock venders. What I am curious to learn is what about them warrants the price?

Yes they do look gorgeous. Nobody needs bring that up. I am right there with you.

But functionally what do you get when you pay for an AICS chassis system for just your run of the mill rem 700 .308?

I am not trying to rile people up. I know there is a lot of love around this site for AICS. Just looking for some knowledge and understanding.

Thanks for your time.

Re: AICS price

supply and demand, their worth it. I do not have one but have shot them, (knew the armory master at little creek, their super nice, but their are their out their that would diss-agree, I personally don't understand why the case for them is 800.00 but "apples and orange's johnny." they are really nice and if i had 1000.00 i could afford id drop it now, that's just me. i feel its in the R&D and the harmonics that the inner stock (the aluminum sub frame) make it a very nice rig.

My Opinion

Cost of McMillan A5 inletted for Rem 700 with adjustable cheek- 750
Badger Ordnance M5- 300

AICS, already has all of that from the get go. for the same money. Its an apples to apples comparison,
 
Re: AICS price

Very true. Forgot about bottom metal and all the dough that goes along with that. Like I said, there was a good deal of ignorance contained within my curiosity. Thanks for the heads up.
