    Finally got my AI

    After nearly 2 decades of lusting over AI rifles I finally got one. It's a 2015 AT 20 inch 308. Game with two 22 inch Gladous barrels in 6.5 Creedmoor and 6 Creedmoor and ammo soon to do the paperwork for the TBAC 30 superior that goes along with the break down on the 6.5CM barrel. I topped it with a Nightforce ATACR F1 7-35x56 with the Mil-C reticle. Also came with 200 rounds of Hornady 140 grain ELD-M.

    I should have it out on the range early next week

    Badass rig man, congratulations. Lotta scope for 308 but it’s never a bad thing to top off with NF.

    It will be a long time before I can step into that realm. Very nice indeed.

    Nice. Been lusting after AI rifles for a lot of years also. Would love to get one with an OD chassis chambered in 6.5 CM. One rig at a time...

    Very nice. An AI is on the list for me. It will happen eventually!

    Very nice! Welcome to the cult....I mean club.
    You now own probably THE finest production rifle made. I have said it before, and I stand by it: most everyone I know and shoot with is shooting full house custom guns. While they are great, and shoot well, not one of them can consistently outshoot my A.I. I have shot several, yes, SEVERAL sub .5 moa 5 shot groups with it. Currently shooting a Brux 6.5CM barrel. Later this week, I’ll add a Bartlein 26” 6.5CM. Only because I’m about to the end of this barrel.
    Again, congratulations. AI’s are incredible, and I love mine.

    Nice! I'm a little jealous, I've always wanted an AI, but my current AO doesn't have much in the way of ranges that can really take advantage of a rig like that. One of these years...

    Took her out to the same for the first time today. I haven't had a precision bolt gun in a few years so I was a bit rusty. Took 3 rounds to sight it in and then a shot three 5 shot groups. 1st was .58 inches, 2nd was .61 inches, and third was .9 inches. I pulled a couple on the last one.

    Ammo was Hornady 140 ELD-M.

    Took it to the long range valley and went 13 for 15 at 908 yards on an 18 inch round plate. Took it out to 1380 yards on a 18x30 steel silhouette after that. It took me a few rounds to walk it on as nd find out my correct mils since I don't have a chronograph. Once I figured out my dope I went 2 for 5 on that target.

    Overall a great day.
