Oh baby , my heart just skipped a beat !!!
Very nice !!! ![]()
USMC03 - you have WAY too many guns. I’m jealous. They’re all beautiful, too!
How long was the wait on that thing? Zak-Smith told me…must have been last September, that you had one on order.
I almost bought one, but some financial things went haywire and I have a Surgeon action on the way now. Kinda wishing I had saved some more for the AI.
That comment my friend, is what is known as an oxymoron. There is no such animal as too many guns, too much money, etc

RyanB,
I ordered the gun last May or June, it got here in late Jan.....but it was worth the wait.
I’m not a bolt gun guy, but even I know beauty when I see it!
Some updated (a little better quality) pics:




Clean up in Aisle four!
Great pics!
How dare you steal my rifle…I demand you ship it to me for inspection.
Wow! My absolute favorite bolt-gun. I wish it wasn’t so damn expensive. I’m jealous of you USMC03
Do they shoot as good as there reputation?
What kind of scope rings are those?
Those pics don’t look “Artic Warfare” terrain to me… ![]()
Are the days of below zero warfare over? ![]()
Beautiful stick. One of the nicest (form and function) I have ever seen…

They shoot as well as everyone says they do. I have a friend that has shot several different loads from 150’s up to 180’s in his AIAW, and can’t find anything that the gun doesn’t like.
The Rings / Base is a 1 piece deal directly from Accuracy International.
Great choice USMC03. They’re worth every $$
I just wish I could have held onto mine ![]()

But at least I know where it is and that it’s being well cared forby it’s new owner.
I get just excellent accuracy with “just about” every 308 load I have tried. The two notable exceptions were the 150gr Nosler Ballistic Tip, and M118LR. The former is a mystery, and I didn’t put any effort into figuring it out (just had some extra bullets laying around, and the 125’s shoot fine), and the latter is consistent with reports I have heard from others.
My normal load is a 155gr Scenar at 2840fps (24" AWP barrel with 5000 rounds through). I have played extensively with the 175 SMK and 168 Berger, but saw no advantage to using those bullets. For game, I have a box of GameKings or some other SP bullet which shoot to the same POI out to say 400 yards (way longer than I can see any of the places I hunt deer anyway – if I need to kill anything further than that, I’ll just take the 338). Australian F4 surplus usually shoots MOA and is OK to 400-500 yards on practical targets.
I haven shot the 210 Berger VLDs and they were accurate, but too slow.

:eek: wow…very nice, indeed.
…I have no words…
Damn that is just pure sexiness right there…
