Can’t say I’ve noticed any AI (recent or old) with accuracy issues from either the older Walther barrels or the Sassen barrels - other than shot out tubes ready for rebarrelling 

Ive replaced (rebarrelled) several A I rifle barrels with Sassen, (which are the factory barrel on the newer rifles ) and not noticed any accuracy issues (from client feedback) 

 

 

 

Well that's positive!

I've been told the opposite and I'm inclined to believe that. Unless I've been fed a pack of lies which is of course possible. But when I spoke to certain people and mentioned the specifics of what I had been told, they were in agreement immediately, when it was in their best interests to say its nonsense. 

Anything beginning with a 3 is likely a much better barrel than anything beginning with a 5. Some poor results from 5 serialed rifles etc.

I was keen to understand what data you based your statement on. It was such a broad statement, with no evidence that I was making a point.

I'm sure if AI barrels were not consistent, then their quality control would pick it up, but clearly not according to your sources.

If you want to get personal, take it elsewhere

 

It was a joke, you've come in here for an argument, and you'll sadly be left arguing with yourself old boy. 

The "data" is from two gunsmiths, a former AI employee and a distributor who have all confirmed the earlier barrels are much much better, and the later barrels suffer. 

I don't believe I have said that all AT-X will suffer from poor accuracy, did you leave the Engineers to pursue journalism?

I am genuinely interested. What makes the newer barrels trash?

AI chinned off Lothar and decided to do their own and they haven't been very consistent at all.

Thanks bud already enquired! 

Before I pre order some, has anyone got any thumbhole skins they would sell for an AT folder? Pref pale brown but any considered. 

Ta! 

Sportsmans carry rifles and orders direct from AI with 6.5cm barrels. The newer trash barrels that AI have been producing somewhere. 

For sale is my rem700 inlet MDT LSS chassis with two way locking folding stock adapter and SCS carbine stock. Grip is a magpul K.

Looking for an AI AT in 6.5cm preferably with a serial numbered barrel starting with a 3.

If the barrel has a high count or a 5 serial I'm not fussed as long as its priced accordingly. 

Thanks

These are cracking stocks/ Chasis. M tempted to move on my TAC A1 chasis and replace it with this.  

Ironically Tac A1 was my first choice until I used one of these. So I put a CTR in this. The Tac A1 are nice though. How much would you be looking for it? Feel free to PM.

No problem. 

It comes with the rear magpul flushcup, bag rider, LOP plates, KRG branded magpul Mlok rail and the Tikka specific bolts.

For which Tikka action is it for... magnum or standard/short calibres?

Short action as pictured. Thanks

Gen 3 Xray gen3 chassis in sako green for sale. 

Used for one match and on one hunt. Selling as I'm going back to basics on what is my stalking rifle. So it's in fantastic condition. 

Asking for a reasonable £420 plus postage. Will come in original box. 

All the best 

Big ole price drop!

Bought a new chassis and the bailiffs are at the door. 

If you can't afford it, please don't waste mine and your own time by asking for more photos. Then tell me you can get a new one for £700 in long action, when your own rifle is short action. Ta. 

Monopod sold, price adjusted. 

Hi all, 

Something I really really don't want to do. 

I'm selling my iconic rem700 AI AW chassis. 

The chassis is in great condition and comes with a spare set of OD genuine skins. 

I have sprayed the current skins with Krylon which will rub off if desired. 

I also have fitted extra LOP spacers from sporting services. 

I am looking for £550 for the chassis, and spare skins.

Sporting Services had a 1.5 for sale at £750 with damage from arca rail fitting, so I believe this price to be more than fair. 

All the best. 

P. S second photo bottom is the spare skins, top shows chassis before painted skins with monopod. 

Bought last year, never used, still in box. 

Excellent high quality dot sight perfect for mounting to shotgun, truck gun or as a close range fast target acquisition option on a rifle. 

These retail new at £180.

Looking for £150 posted. 

Comes with medium and low mounts. 

Thanks

Hi mate, let me know if you'd sell the bipod individually, thanks.
