+1 on that! Go put a regular rifle scope on a pellet gun. I have a pile of them. If I remember right they slam forward. Not much to notice when shooting it but it's enough to bust your scope.

Make sure you can see the flash, if not click on the "mobile" link at the bottom of the page.

Any talk about offering a left hand version???
Are you certain the Allen bolt itself is holding the barrel in place? Or, more likely in my opinion, rather than pushing against the barrel directly is the Allen bolt pushing against a threaded plate or some other locking mechanism?

They have noted "if" they do a left hand run of rifles it will be down the road and very limited.
The left hand runs are generally few and far between.
Cartman. The bolt squeezes the action together around the barrel shank. Scott said the cut a slit.in the bottom of the the action so the two halves could be pulled together. The screw in no way contacts the barrel. The best way to describe it is like their muzzle brake and how it clamps to the barrel OD.
$7735 or so from MH but the ability to go from 338LM for long range and hunting down to a 308 for cheap(er) plinking means this will be my next rifle. Probably not for another year or so because this rifle with scope will be at 10k and that is a lot of pennies to save. AI did a really nice job on the rifle though.
I want to give a big "thank you" to Frank and his photography skills.
My wife is Israeli, and her father raised her to love guns and martial arts (I'm a lucky bastard), so guns aren't usually a hard sell. But now that we have a child a lot more negotiation and planning goes into purchases that are this pricey.
After watching the video my wife says "well, now I know why they call it gun porn -- I have the hots for that rifle."
It may take bit to save up the cash, but we're in.

I figured it was something like that rather than what that veer guy was suggesting.
Thanks for the info Matt. Now do you have any data on weights or whether a small firing pin may be an option?

You Sir are a lucky man!
This has been explained before. Some of the most talented people in the industry came up wth this design.
I'm planning on getting one also. I'm wondering though if the accuracy is the same on the 20" versus the 27" barrels? I know the longer barrel will produce a higher velocity and subsequent longer range before going sub-sonic, but is distance the only real-world difference between the two barrel lengths?
I'm with you here. I've played around with AI's different chassis systems and could not get used to the ergos of the AX. I would be willing to pay more or the AT if I could switch to 300 and 338 as well.
Call Lance at AI North America 540-368-3108. He should be able to answer your question.
