* In 308 obviously.

Heard good things and is the rifle I am looking at getting for my first.

About £1100, so plenty left for a decent scope.

I have bought a 6.5CM, but would like to find some factory ammunition for the barrel break in procedure!

Just buy some decent 22-250 cases, run a 6.5 neck expander or a Creedmoor FLS die through them, load and fire them off, result is fire formed 6.5C brass, around .025" shorter than factory but a damn sight cheaper and work perfectly well :)

When I purchased my AI AT, there is a recommended break-in procedure in the hand book: but eh, what would AI know about their own products! wallhead

Border used to suggest shoot one, foam for 24 hours, clean and repeat, something that always made me smile when my nearest range was 35 miles away with only monthly access and Bisley anything from 2 and 7 hours dependant on traffic.

I saw one in 6.5 at the gun shop today complete with scope and mod. I must say it looked very bad ass!

This is mine (6.5CM), next to its 'safe' companion, I like my AI; but I also like the Ruger PR. It does however need a muzzle brake, the recoil is more then expected.
