PhilM Posted September 18, 2017 Report Share Posted September 18, 2017 There's a .243 Accuracy international AE MK3 on GunTrader, folder with full length mod and S&B scope on it. As Paul says above though, you can pick up an AI AT or AX new and order it with an additional 243 barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldie Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 I make custom barrels for AI's every week. I also fit the custom barrel to YOUR rifle, negating any headspace variations. 243 is no problem at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grum87 Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Holy grail! Although without a doubt the new 3-12's and 5-25's are better optics. Lovely!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatoomDownUnder Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 My AW perched nicely in a borrowed Hog saddle on a very nice PRS tripod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3T3R Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 My AI AT with 308 and 6.5x47 barrels, S&B 3-20, Spuhr mount, Atlas bipod, SAP 2 round holder. I had Paddy (danpd) cut the .308 barrel down to 16 inches I've got a sound moderator that goes on the threaded muzzle break need to get a photo of that though This is a still from a video I took shooting Prvi Match 168gr My Krieger 6.5x47 Lapua 27 inch 1 in 8 twist barrel, again Paddy chambered and threaded this barrel and it is an absolute hammer! He also made a delrin thread protector so that the chamber threads don't get damaged when a barrel isn't on the gun. I use a set of fixit sticks to torque the barrel, did a little test the other day taking the barrel off after every shot and it held a perfect zero I'm very impressed with the AT and happy I upgraded my AE MKIII for this.

Villadave59 Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 That looks very nice I bet it barks with the 16" barrel no mod fitted ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve7.62 Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 I'm currently looking for a complete Accuracy International 7.62x51 AW with a green Fixed stock if anyone has one or knows of one for sale. Ideally looking for something in its packing case with every issued part with it, muzzle break, scope, bi-pod, cleaning rods, magazines, sling etc But happy to source parts separately if needed. Kind Regards Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve7.62 Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Thanks for the reply, ive seen that one and I can also get the last Brand new AW that's never been fired but it's a folder... I'm really wanting a Fixed stock Regards Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 The difference in weight is an ounce or so, bettween the non and folding stocks Resale time the folder is more desirable.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve7.62 Posted February 11, 2018 Report Share Posted February 11, 2018 Weight isn't the issue I just want a fixed stock as a personal preference. Resale value isn't a factor for me either as once I have one I wouldn't consider parting with it. Finding an origional AW with a fixed stock that hasn't has the AT/AW thumbhole conversion or seams around the thumbhole appears to be the hardest thing to find. I know they're out there... it's just finding one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markymark Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thought I should finally get around to posting up a pic of my AX308: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villadave59 Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 Nice set up,what barrel length is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markymark Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thank you. It’s 20” .308 barrel, albeit in a 16” forend tube off the AXMC. I also have a 26” 6.5CM barrel with it, which I haven’t used as much as I would have liked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villadave59 Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 Hi mark mine is similar but 26" 308 ,also 26" 6.5cm which Dave from Valkyrie made for me ,I've only just run it in and need to find more time to enjoy it properly luckily I have land approved for the creedmoor and need to get reloading for it ,early signs are very good using hornady factory ammo , I bet the 20" barrel makes it more manageable I nearly went for that on the 6.5 but thought I'd see how I get on first ,can always get it shortened later !

Kind Regards Steve There are 2 AW’s on gunstar at the moment, certainly worth a look, and as for building a kit there is a guy who advertises parts on Facebook (grey man militaria), he comes up trumps with loads af nice bits.
