    Got behind one of these today and love the chassis. I assume it's a propitiatory design, but had to ask to make sure; does anyone know who makes the chassis?
     
    Winny, in case you didn't know, the MRAD is just an evolution of Barrett's M98B rifle. When the PSR solicitation went out, many of the big name manufacturers took their existing .338LM rifles and built modular versions to meet the PSR requirements. The MRAD is basically a PSRd M98B the way an AI PSR is a PSRd AI AX, basically.
     
    I feel the short action AI AXMC will meet my needs better, since I have a 338LM for my DTA SRS A1. The short action calibers on the MRAD are still verrrry long and heavy. Sold my MRAD to preorder the AI AXMC.
