Great review. Thanks for demonstrating the barrel changes. It is impressive that there wasn’t much of an impact shift between them. It was nice to get Rick and Matt’s impressions.
I guess Im asking randomly but does someone know a way to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid lost the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Kaysen Casen thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I’ve taken females to the range and they shot my AI AT 6.5 for the very first time ever on a rifle. With a few minutes of coaching, they can hit the 600 yards plates on the very first try. Incredible accuracy and the ones with the Ruger precision in the lanes next to us are flabbergasted what a girl can do 😅
Nice rifle. Thanks for demonstrating how easy the barrel can be changed out. If I were in the market for a custom rifle I might consider the factory AT-X instead.
One sweet rifle. Thanks to AI for letting you review one. I don't own any centerfire rifles that could be considered precision. 5.56/.223 or 300 Blk are it, and their gas guns. If I was in the market for a factory built rifle bolt gun, this would be at the top of my list. I'd like to see one in 6mm ARC out of the box from AI.
Im a hunter not a target shooter, however, your channel is the best target channel out there. IMHO AI makes the best products of their type out there. Would love to see how the ATX fires with 6.8 which may become the next military standard.
I bought a AI AT 308 because of your reviews of Accuracy International and also a 6.5 creedmore Bartlein barrel. I can't wait to shoot it but cause I live in California we don't have a lot of ranges to test my accuracy but I'm sure I'll enjoy it. Thanks
One thing worth mentioning with the low axis you probably dont want to mount your scope super low. I mounted mine low as i would any other rifle i own and i really have to shove my face into the cheek rest to get a good sight picture. Been running it without the cheek rest until i order some new rings lol
Hhmm. Could be a nice next rifle for me... been trying to decide between the AXMC. AX MKIII. This new AT-X or an MPA. Interchangeable barrels is a must for me. And good accuracy. Now I know that these have the Interchangeable barrels. I think the new AT-X is the direction I will follow... and I like the red or blue chassis
Great review Ray! I'm curious about the Nightforce. What is the problem with it? You seem to apologize for having it on the rifle, but it looked like it was working well for you and the other shooters. I like the reticle too. Which reticle is it? I can't wait to shoot well enough to need this rifle! The ability to change not only barrels, but calibers too would be very useful. Hmmm...might have to sell one of my kidneys, but it looks like it will be worth it! For the blue one of course. 8-) Where can we find more info on this rifle?
Excellent videos! Just picked up an AT-X in 6.5 creedmore. Deciding between a ZCO ZC527 5-27x56, Nightforce ATACR, or Zeiss S5. Any thoughts? Much appreciated!
The ergos on this look awesome. I just purchased the new action from American Rifle Company and plan to put it in this chassis with the fulll handguard and eventually the folder as well. For your 6BR barrel, was it a 26" and if so did it change the balance point at all?
Any updates? I may have missed the follow-up to the "follow-up" but am curious as I have a JP barrel kit, hand guard, and bolt and have been pleased with it. Mine is in .260 Rem and it shoots well as far as I'm concerned (consistent 0.68" at 100 yds). The caveat is that I am shooting handloads........
Great review! Wondering if anyone can comment if AT-X would be sufficiently sturdy for trekking and hunting, perhaps versus the AX Mk3 which is the flagship, fully tactical but heavier brother?
Wow just found and subscribed to your channel today! Looking to get in to long range shooting. Would like to purchase an AX in 6.5. Not sure if they still sell? Will be watching and learning from your amazing videos.
Good review mate.What happened with the miss feed at 6:15 heard these rifles have had feeding issues and the mag catch needs to be shimed or the mags need adjusting. Also have seen other reviews were the mag seems to rattle a bit. There over 8k here in Aus and if i get one i want it to work.😊
Do you prefer a chassis or regular stock for just general shooting, non PRS environment? Been getting back into shooting, and after I get the dust knocked off, may build a new, nicer gun than I currently have. Current setup: Savage model 10 24" criterion barrel 6.5cm Manners t5a with mini chassis Older vortex pst sfp mil/mil adjust I have had this for about 10-11 years now, just after the 6.5 came out, but it hasn't been shot much in the past 5-6 years, because of other hobbies. Thanks for the great videos!
That looks like a serious contender as a production rifle. However. Surely it is no longer a production rifle once you have fitted an aftermarket barrel in a non production caliber. Correct me if I’m wrong. With the new world championships coming up I think there a lot of creases to be ironed out.
Cheers for the reply. Is there a cap on the value of a rifle to qualify for production class. I’m speaking in relation to the new world championships with the IPRF (International precision rifle federation) I know you guys have a couple of different leagues to choose from
Hey I have a question about all your ammo in the background everyone talks about keeping it stored in metal ammo cans for storage in fear of moister damage? She’d some light on this for me please
As long at you have low humidity and it’s climate controlled you should be good. Ammo cans with desiccant are probably the best way to store ammunition long term.
Hello Brian. It is a Borka tool kit. I am the only other authorized dealer for it other than the inventor. I should have more coming into stock within the next week. Www.xringcustoms.com
@XRING good to know have some custom builds that feel amazing but always wanted an AI. Just picked up the atx and was kinda disappointed in the action but won't really know until it's nice and broken in.
the AXMC is a long action which is able to switch barrels to 300 win mag and 338 lapua. the AT-X is the successor to the AT- which is a short action similar to the AX.
Great review. Thanks for demonstrating the barrel changes. It is impressive that there wasn’t much of an impact shift between them. It was nice to get Rick and Matt’s impressions.
This is a pure PRS rifle with war fighting reliability.
AI AXMC can go from fighting in Afghanistan to a PRS match.
Great guns any one AI.
Well said!
That group though! Love it Ray!

Wow....well done. First proper review of this rifle. What a huge deal. 🤙🏼 my favourite channel.

Nice! You finally get to test the AT-X! That is one great rifle and the best design I have seen yet!!!💯👍🎯
Wow that a awesome bit of kit 👌 I've never seen a rilfe group like that before
Nice rifle. Thanks for demonstrating how easy the barrel can be changed out. If I were in the market for a custom rifle I might consider the factory AT-X instead.
Beautiful rifle. Thanks for the review. I gotta save up. My wallet can’t keep up. Lol 😂
Same here 😂
crazy I never realized low bore axis was such a thing in rifle shooting! Thanks for the video Ray and AI!
Great review X-RING . Man that’s one awesome rifle . I want one ☝️😀
That is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
Amazing rifle dang it gotta save up for another one great shooting

Awesome review. I just put a deposit on an AT-X, super excited to get some trigger time
Thanks . I know you will love it. Mine is still one of the most favorite rifles I own.
I hope it comes in different colors 😉
iv just bought a ai axmc in 300 win mag, cant wait to shoot it! cool vid

Awesome ! You will definitely like it.
Still one of my favorites.
Awesome rifle
Sweet rifle sir! Thanks for sharing!
Now I need to order one with all the different calibers. I can't wait!

For some reason I thought this was production class... the 5k took me by surprise.
A beautiful rifle and an excellent review
Amazing rifle!!! Awesome👊👍

That looks awesome.
Good setup once you change optics , you just have to show off at 700 yds great off hand XRING
Great Review !!!
Ordered mine today!
Nice Review, why not in orange? 🍊😂 Carry On
Awesome rifle looks like it would be a wonderful tooth

I believe Ray is sponsored by Bushnell.
Burris.
@@XRING thank you for the correction!! Love the channel!
Thanks Brian! I appreciate you watching. Have a great day sir. 👍🏼
Very cool gun, I think if I were to need a gun in any sort of duty capacity the AI would be my choice
Excellent videos! Just picked up an AT-X in 6.5 creedmore. Deciding between a ZCO ZC527 5-27x56, Nightforce ATACR, or Zeiss S5. Any thoughts? Much appreciated!
Ray do you think you'll see a bunch of these make their way into the PRS scene or will most opt for a "custom" build?
Dang that thing is pretty!! Edit: No anti seize on the threads?
The ergos on this look awesome. I just purchased the new action from American Rifle Company and plan to put it in this chassis with the fulll handguard and eventually the folder as well.
For your 6BR barrel, was it a 26" and if so did it change the balance point at all?
I love my AI-MC and my 50.
I would hope an almost 5,000 dollar rifle is a shooter
Any updates? I may have missed the follow-up to the "follow-up" but am curious as I have a JP barrel kit, hand guard, and bolt and have been pleased with it.

Guessing only for the big ammo and not the 77/22. Not many stocks out there for the Ruger 22lr. 😩
Well done. 🤙🏾

Correct me if I’m wrong. With the new world championships coming up I think there a lot of creases to be ironed out.
The price of the rifle will make it a non production class model. I meant production in the sense that it is not a custom build.
Cheers for the reply.
Is there a cap on the value of a rifle to qualify for production class.
I’m speaking in relation to the new world championships with the IPRF
(International precision rifle federation)
I know you guys have a couple of different leagues to choose from
2500USD for the rifle and 2500USD for the optic I believe for PRS. Not sure for other leagues.
Finishing up with an offhand 700 yd shot.
Was barrel already broke in ? 1shot,patch ,1 shot,patch, etc? Or no?
That off hand accuracy Mr Ray👊👊👊💰how’s the price
What do you think?
What color will you get it in? Elite sand?
FDE
That looks light enough for hunting, if it came in camo colours. Will it come with a folding stock?
Hey I have a question about all your ammo in the background everyone talks about keeping it stored in metal ammo cans for storage in fear of moister damage? She’d some light on this for me please
As long at you have low humidity and it’s climate controlled you should be good. Ammo cans with desiccant are probably the best way to store ammunition long term.
@@XRING how long has all that ammo been setting behind you like that
3 years. Everything else is stacked in ammo cans along the floor. The stuff behind me gets rotated pretty frequently.
@@XRING thanks what is your thoughts on plastic mtm ammo storage cans
love your vids. Could you please have a better mic. Thx.
Thanks Vic. I use the Rode Go mics. Probably time to invest in some better ones.
A Nightforce laying around
how do you have a thumbs down already, you've got mad haters!
they probably looked up the price. sometimes it has nothing to do with the person. I know... it's dumb.
What is the difference in weight between your Accuracy International and this new AI AT-X rifle ?
I wish I had lambo money
Guys, are the watches you use Garmin? How do they seem compared to a Kestrel HUD?
If you want your gun heavier why not just keep useing the axmc?
what's the torque socket you use that you swatted his hand from showing to much of? and the one you use on the night force scope zero?
Hello Brian. It is a Borka tool kit.
I am the only other authorized dealer for it other than the inventor. I should have more coming into stock within the next week.
Www.xringcustoms.com
@@XRING thanks for the reply back i enjoy watching your videos some real good info
does this include the tool for the scope as well?
disregard that question i see it does
The new model AT-X uses the same barrel as the AT?
Need a haircut Ray!
Does the action on them smooth up over time? Feels a little rough out of the box
Mine did smooth out quite a bit once the cerakote wore in on the bottom of the bolt.
@XRING good to know have some custom builds that feel amazing but always wanted an AI. Just picked up the atx and was kinda disappointed in the action but won't really know until it's nice and broken in.
Will aics work in AT-X
Sooo it's a worse version of the accuracy obsession chassis?
What’s the difference between the AT-X and AXMC?
the AXMC is a long action which is able to switch barrels to 300 win mag and 338 lapua. the AT-X is the successor to the AT- which is a short action similar to the AX.
What cans were you using?
Sordins
I have no witty banter to share.
Too rich for my blood.
That thimg is ugly. Once I seen the butt stock looks like a RPR I can't unsee it lol
