Dta owners

[Cj10]

I'm using 142 SMKs over Elcho 17. Haven't got my data with me, but the loaded round just fits in the mag.

My 15 year old son delivered a 100 metre eight shot group of around .5 MOA including one flyer with this load. He called the flyer, but I chose to include it in the group size for fear of him embarrassing my results. Had I not included the flyer the seven shot group would have been around .3 MOA.

After the above I gave him my .303 as I know he doesn't like it. :). In fairness though he already had first use of my (our) AW. THe DTA is mine and it's staying that way.

Excellent :) what length barrel is your 260? Do you have any other cals? I've iust got the 16" 308 and an 18" 243 which is a laser!! It loves the 115 dtac!

26 inch 260 and a 300 WM barrel. Am considering other configurations but have started to fall into lust with the AXMC. Subject to the necessary variation, I may well pick up an AXMC in 300 WM with a 308 conversion.

Personally I'd take a dta over an axmc any day of the week.'

Would you care to expand on this statement - why, based upon what?

Like I say personally that's what I would take every single time. The barrel changes faster the poi is exactly the same EVERYTIME, it's shorter, the barrel is supported for 6" by the chassis, the trigger is stunning...... The list goes on fella and like I say that's my opinion. That's OK isnt it?

have they updated the trigger ? the ones I handled a while ago were not becoming of a weapon system in that price bracket !

apart from the price,weight and trigger oh and the mag I'd have one , if they fixed the trigger and made double stack 10rd mags I'd live with the weight and price.........

I suspect you may be in a minority, but each to his own I guess.

In my opinion the AXMC's pedigree stands out, and you're hardly likely to need to change barrels against a stop watch are you?

I don't intend to sell the DTA. If I do acquire the AXMC it will be my AW which gets sacrificed.

My Gen 1 SRS is, in my opinion an excellent product. Having read others' views on the trigger all I can say is mine has a clean crisp break. No issues for me there at all. Additionally I'm more than happy with my check weld, so no need for an adjustable cheek piece. As such I have no real reason to move to the A1.

I love my AW, but the AXMC surpasses it in my opinion, thus the logical choice for me is to move the AW on and welcome an AXMC.

The mags are the only issue to me and thanks to Davy the issue that annoyed me is fixed :) the trigger was worked on from gen 1 to gen 2 and everyone who has shot mine all say how crisp it is and how surprised they are at how good it is.

As for price what do you expect to pay?

Weight mine feels lighter than the AI's i have shot. (Not had either on the scales though!) being a bulpup the weight is more to the rear and easier for positional shooting. The AI's now feel Front heavy to me. Lovely rifles but I made my choice when I bought the dta as I was initially going to buy an aiax then I came across my dta and plumped for that :)

These are just my opinions. I am a die hard DT fan and I wouldn't swap my rifle for any other system available right now.
