That is fine. Follow the factory specs. None of the bolts need extreme torque numbers when fit and finish is perfect. 243 loctite if you are paranoid.
- Thread starter Lowlight
- Start date
The problem with introducing theadlocker, if that threadlocker is not part of OEM spec, is you need to play around with "wet vs dry" toruqe settings.
Thanks.
I’ll probably run it for awhile as is, and periodically check them. If they loosen again I’ll give them a little dab of 243.
Interestingly last range session the rifle was still shooting just fine even with the two front action screws loose.

Thats what i did when i changed my upper action rail; just a touch of 243 and that was from AI. I called them for the tq value; the tech dep was closed but the sweet lady on the phone got my question and asked the line guys building the rifles; and called me back with the info.
Bison Tactical has the hinge in stock. I just placed an order for one.
Out of stock already, but thanks for the heads up!
Thought I was going to be able to get one since I saw the "add to cart" button on the product page. But once I clicked the button, it prompted me to put in my email address for inventory updates.
So according to @Nostradumbass , Tyler at Eurooptic has confirmed a new Gen of AT-X coming early next year....sounds like the major (only?) changes are it including a hinge from the get go, as well as a NV bridge...
I havent received my bridge yet, but will the it accept a 1.250 straight barrel? What's the heaviest contour you can go with the at-x?
I called EO and ordered a high action rail and full length rail. Seems to me after reading threads that the AT high rail they are sending me is the incorrect rail to co-plane with the full length rail, its like .050 off on height or something. They're claiming the 26612 is the correct one i need. What ive read is that i need is the 29394.....Might not make a difference when your not putting a clip on, but its still not "right" to my understanding.

29394 is the one you need, but it's been "discontinued" and is now only offered as a kit- 29390BL (contains screws and everything else you need)

Yeah, if you call, I would ask for Keefer. It took me a couple calls and emails before I got the right answer and parts and he was very helpful.

I had to change my action rail with that forend rail
Back to $5000.00.
It’s a good buy it at $5000 with the upgrades only if they make the new model compatible with rem 700 triggers.
Does anyone think that’s going to happen for the civilian market?
It would more like 6k?

It's likely not even happening for the non civilian market. The normal AI trigger along with the Comp Trigger that is made by an outside company for AI will likely handle any contract requirements to fit non factory two and single stage triggers. Since the comp trigger isn't actually made by AI. Just sold by AI and made by XTSP.
I'd love to see a diamond trigger in an AI, but I'll be absolutely shocked if that happens.
With a full rail, the best you'll do is something like a proof comp contour. It will not fit a straight 1.25.
A 1.25 can get away with a short bridge positioned as close to the action as possible....if you just want somewhere to grab with your support hand. Since you won't be able to flex that part of the barrel into the hand guard. But anything further out than that is going to easily be flexed into the hand guard that is now tighter because the mounting points for the top rail are on the inside.
Anyone heard any updates on the 6.5 PRC bolt and mags?
Saw the barrels on Mile High with a vague ETA.
With the folders finally coming from the factory I’m going to pick up a AT-X this spring. On paper it seems doable to make weight for NRL hunter with a proof cf barrel.

I mean, it’s more of a ‘would be sweet’ than a make or break situation on the NRL weight.
Any input on the status of the AI 6.5 PRC bolts, or?
What’s this going to be?
Okay, so I know the answer is in here somewhere but gonna ask anyway.
I have oodles of AW magazines for my two AW and one AT rifles but zero AX (AT-X) magazines with the tab on front.
I'm finally adding the AT-X to my AI family and just wondering if I'll be able to use the mags I have or will be forced to buy the AT-X magazines.
What's your experience?

So $5200 with hinge and bridge?
Not too hateful of a change from the $4200 sale thar just ended
Now if we could get them to make long action at-x aics
I was wondering why EuroOptoc completely removed the ATX som wondering if it was just to clear out old inventory to prepare for this new “gen 4” 
Whatever happens to getting the stock end that is the one from the AXSR chassis? Thought that was promised or at least mentioned by AI 2 years ago.

Shit they’re right on schedule. Don’t panic yet!
I tried prying some info from a few vendors and didn’t get anywhere. Makes me think more change then just folding hinge to be honest.
Interesting if true. With the ATX launch they put out a bunch of info on the rifle well before launch then deliveries were slow to trickle out. Plus they did the pre production run thing. And they continued selling the previous model AT even to this day.
If that's the case it seems like they being tight lipped while selling out existing inventory. Makes me wonder if they are trying to support a new launch with inventory at dealers at time of launch or soon after vs the vapor ware approach.
Seems hard to believe but who knows...
And it could be they are just going to include those two things now to get the price back up. That’s what I’m hoping for. Really seems weird for them to change so quickly since they also just released rem 700 chassis
They (AI) is doing this thing called 'bid-niz' - they do whatever they can to increase profit but if you can increase revenue, hey why not. That's the competing forces on how they price shit.
But I am still waiting on my 6.5PRC bolt that was "of course, thats easy" from 2 yrs ago. I already fell outta love with 6.5prc before they even let me give them my money (well they do sell the barrel lol).
But my shit is accurate and repeatable so idk. I don't really fault AI - just bid-niz
15-18"
very well could be right - I was holding back on my delicate flower (bridge screws fine thread can't replace etc). I re read that quick and yes on all the attachments,ents going onto the frond or bridge that is key slot yea im at 25 all day
There wasn't a torque spec in the manual for the front bridge screws so I just sent it at 25 in-lbs which is the same as I've used for keyslot attachments. It's felt reasonable and held together well so far.
Mine are 35 in lbs. I set any accessory rails or weights to the same with blue loctite
Oh nice, that's good to know. Thanks.
I found some 9 round AX mags in the UK that I like. Hard to see in this picture but the bottom orange mag and the ones in bags are just a little shorter.
