Factory AIAT barrel 1/12 LW barrel 24" threaded 5/8x24. Came on an AT Demo I picked up from mile high last November that was outfitted with a new barrel. It was unthreaded and I sent it to Danley Precision here in AL to be threaded 5/8x24". It Shoots 178 AMAX very well. I put roughly 60 rounds through it over sight in and shooting 2 matches with it (one last winter and one this spring). Reason for selling is I wanted to try a Proof with 1/10.

NOTE: I dont keep up with exact round count. But the one match I shoot in we shoot 20 rounds( 5 at each of four ranges) I then switch to 6.5CM. So when I go back to .308 for the next match I usually shoot a few sighters at 100 to make sure I am back on.

Its a very nice barrel, its accurate, and has been fired very little ( esp for a .308) but sorry I do not log each shot.

Seriously not trying to be smart a$$, but what kind of matches are you shooting where you can sight in and shoot 5 matches with 60 rounds?


yea.... that was not correct and looks stupid.... that would make 100 rounds. This barrel came new on an AT I got last year in the midst of the competition season. It came from Mile High unthreaded and I got Jason Danley of Danley Precision to thread it for me. The best i can remember is I shot 2 matches last year with it once i got it back. So thats 2 matches and I sight in at private land before the match since I switch barrel from 6.5->.308.

Im honestly not trying to misrespresent this barrels life, I just messed up when brainstorming about this barrel. You guys know how many AIs i have go back and forth with. I honestly originally thought it was my original AT barrel, but remembered jason threaded it for me last year.

I looked back through my old posts and found where I touched base with Mile high and also saw where i sold the green skins that came on it last Nov.

I just wanted a 1/10 to reach 1000 better.

Thanks for the comments.. It did look ridiculous
