Anschutz 1727F AI AT-X

[Rolltide]

I finally broke down and picked up one of these. So far, it's shooting well and I'm not regretting it...I'm not retiring any of my other rimfires, but I am happy with the way it's performing.

I do need to add a few items to the chassis to help when shooting comps.

For anyone who has one, are you using a thumb shelf? If so, which one?

Also, I've debated picking up the AI Bridge, but I would love some firsthand experience from anyone using one.

The last item I am trying to decide on is a rear bag rider. Is there a preferred model, or should one be used that is made for any other AI?

Thanks in advance!

The normal thumb rest location is taken up by the folding system if you have it ( I do) so I replaced the vertical grip with this one from Saber

I have the AI bridge and I love it, fits great and looks great, even with my larger diameter barrel.

Oh I use the Bullet bag rider bought here. Work really well!

I'm running MBE-Sleds, Bag-rider, and Tuner. I like the look and feel of the bridge. Do not use thumb rest so cannot comment. I'm also in East Tennessee, where do you shoot?

Does yours have the back bored muzzle? If so I'm curious how it's shooting? Is the consistency good? I haven't seen a back bored muzzle be optimal. I know they do it to prevent the muzzle threads from opening up the bore but I have seen just as much of a negative effect as threading. Just curious...
