Uh brah no.... Different action different bolt

I'm fixing it. Keyboard autocorrected. AT-X, not AT-XC.

Has anyone run an elite iron bipod on their at-x or will it not fit?
That question is too vague, as EI makes all sorts of adapters with different barrel-top to rail distances. You’re sort of asking, “How long is a piece of string?”

I’ve attached an EI on a AX. I’m positive that EI makes an adapter that will allow what you seek.

Does anybody have the weight of the atx or Atxc without a barrel? Or ideally without a barrel,bridge and bag rider? Trying to spec out a a build to ride just under 16 lbs. Thanks

I don't, but I'd say it is at least 25% lighter than when new. 750 rounds through the gun as it sits. Really started to lighten up after approximately 3-400 rounds

I can now easily cycle the bolt while staying on the scope without losing sight picture, which was near impossible previously

Bolt lift does not significantly drop; the action becomes very smooth. My bolt lift after 3 barrels feels tiny bit better. Operator gets used it too. That whole myth of heavy bolt lift goes away is placebo.
Potentially but the action was always smooth. I can now easily cycle the bolt while staying on the scope without losing sight picture, which was near impossible previously due to the effort required to manipulate the bolt

The finish smooths out on AI rifles with the first 1K rounds for sure. The finish on the cocking ramp probably smooths out some as well helping bolt lift a tiny amount. Don't even need to use the 7-axis mill, after 1k down the pipe it's smoother. :p
