| The ATH looks like a very nice package. The web site does not give the overall length colapsed or extended or weight. Has anyone had a chance to hold or fire one yet? I assume that with that barrel it will be very accurate, with the preferred ammo sub moa. To the lucky owners of an ATH, does it balance well? How does it swing or come up on target? Or does it feel real front heavy? Plus with most scopes would a canti leaver mount be best. Also does the RRA tactical break help over all to keep the gun on target, or does it cause a lot of side blast and noise. The 18" mid length looks very good, and seems to be a good compromise for the all around utility carbine. |
Would love to have the ATH but I saved $300 and picked up an Elite Operator2 which is a very similar rifle without the stainless barrel. My dad also has an EO2 that we were dialing in last weekend and I was shooting hole for hole at 50 yards with his cheapo PMC ammo and open sights (I've got an EOTech on mine).  Balance of the EO2 is very good but I'm comparing it to one of my others RRAs, one being the big dog LAR-8 26" Varmint.  The canitilever mount is a good choice - I've got two Burris PEPRs and one RRA version on different rifles with 4x16-50 scopes. The RRA brake works very well. As a spectator, I've only really noticed the side concussion when I'm on the verge of being where I shouldn't be in relation to the shooter. On the 18" topic, I've got two RRAs in that length, trying to figure out what the next one will be - ATH or NM? Hmm...  |
