Let's see 'em EDIT: Photobucket ruined the Internet. Here's some quick uploads of my AI AX Chassis as it was. Will get some quality photos of where it's at today.

My Short little PSR. This is it wearing 308 clothes. Right now it is a 243. The 338 and 300 Win barrels are unchanged. I have since added a 30 inch 308 barrel when I want to shoot a 308 out to/past 1,000.
Since getting it I bet I have about 2,500 rounds through it between all the calibers. Dragging it all over the countryside it has a few dings and scratches. Looks better if you ask me. Had it out to 1700+ yards late summer. Took a few shots to get on a 18x24 target with the 243, but once I realized we were over 12,000 DA and had to hold about 18-20 MPH wind, it was on. The next time we go up there I am going to screw on the 338 Lapua barrel and see how the Berger 250s compare to the 300s at a mile. Here is the link to the NRA American Warrior Magazine article with awesome photography by legendary Michael Ives. http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/20b822a7#/20b822a7/30

I sent it off to PacNor to be rebarreled and trued and have the bolt fluted. .260 Ackley Improved 26" Super match PacNor barrel 1-8.5" twist Trued 700 Action with Spiral fluted bolt. And of course an Accuracy International AX chassis in green. I'm still waiting on glass but I should have that on by the beginning of the month. |

The Military does not pay *that* well... Being able to shoot 308, 300 WM and 338 lapua out of the same gun is a huge plus as is the quick change barrels. Not 17k worth of nice though. |

Didn't figure you dropped $17K on it. Maybe if it included a nice Nightforce and thermals it would be worth $17k. |

I think I was number 15 or so on the pre order list, and the list included all the SA colors and the LA chassis. I just got really lucky with the timing. But I didn't get mine until September. So I waited sixth months for mine. I guess there was some confusion on when they where going to originally ship from AI and took a bit longer then expected. I'm not sure how long they take now, but I wouldn't hesitate to give Euro Optic or Mile High a call and ask them how many they are getting in. Euro Optic was great throughout the order for me. |
I got lucky with my 2014 pale brown AX, I logged into MidwayUSA on 11/4 (my birthday) and they had it in stock and about 15% off for some reason, promptly ordered it.  Same thing with the Nightforce 8-32x, I logged in and they had it on sale out the door for $1525, brand spanking new.

It's either a condor or voodoo - can't remember. Its definitely easier to carry around than my pelican 1750 it sat in before the chassis. |

Where did you order the 2014 AX Stock and price???...I'm thinking about buying one too Originally Posted By monsonman:
Nice rifle!! what length barrel? I ordered a 2014 AX last week. no clue when I will get it in but I cant wait. going to be a Remington 700 .308 & proof research barrel 18" 1:10 |
| I just bought me a AX stock 2014. On the back of the stock there is a takeoff hand stop. I seen on the web somewhere, where a guy had a monopod that looked as if it where made for it perfectly. Looked like the hand stop but a little longer, but not by much. Monopod came straight down, did not fold up. Just like the Barrett 50 BMG monopod, and etc... Does anyone know where, or what I am referring to here? Information would be very appreciated. |

My loaner rifle, my first AI. It replaced my Tubb2000. I have 243, 260 and 308 barrels for it.
My 40X rimfire. I shoot this rifle the most. Getting close to a rebarrel. I normally shoot it with a can. Here I am shooting steel targets out past 250 yards. 
My AX at a long range rifle match in NM. 
Me driving my AX at the Steel Safari in Logan NM a few years back. 
Overlooking a stage on the Steel Safari North Course. Targets as close as 200 yards downhill and all the way out towards a grand. 
AX in 338 shooting out past a mile. 
And their big brother.
