- Overview of the Accuracy International AXMC rifle.
Featured: AI AXMC rifle with 6.5 Creedmoor conversion by Short Action Customs. Tangent Theta 5-25X56 optic. ERA-TAC adjustable inclination scope mount.
Nice! Picking my AXMC next week, same colour scheme... Handsome! in 300wm... I'm inspired by your video!!!... God's Love to Long Sight!
Congratulations, I know you will enjoy it!!!
As long as you're spending the $, you owe it to yourself to buy the new match trigger for the AXMC. I just installed one on this rifle and it's superb! EuroOptic and Mile High have them in stock.
You've made a great choice, enjoy!
Rod1Malkin enjoy your sweet, sexy rifle! I dont live in a gun-ready country, but one person can dream ;)
Kudos to Short Action Customs for the 6.5 Creedmoor conversion for this rifle!
Mark Gordon and the Team at S.A.C. do excellent work, check them out!
Thanks:
to Jason at EuroOptic for his insight of Accuracy International as well as Tangent Theta products!
to Brian and Crew at Rinkor Arms for helping good folks navigate the challenges of firearms ownership in the D.P.R.C.!
Im going to buy it
that's a pretty cool target
They're inexpensive and durable. A concrete form stake fits through one end of either cylinder once the valves are removed. A little more cutting and welding and voila, more targets!
Thanks for watching!
🤩🤩👍
Tt nice scope
Thanks!
They cost a fortune but, worth every penny!
Thanks for watching!
what sort of barrel break-in did you do/do you recommend?

Hi there, greetings from the U.K. I am looking at getting an AI AXMC but in left handed 308 but in long action to allow me to move up to 338lm in the future. The issues here in the U.K. Is that you can't get the magazine insert in left handed to allow you use a short action mag in the long action gun. Do you know if you can run 308 out of the 300 win mag magazine? Does it feed ok etc? Those is the only issue holding me back or I would have to get a right handed gun. Many thanks for your time. I tried messaging you but I would not work. I chose the AI over the SRS after you have your insight into both rifles. Cheers martin.
martin2514,
There is just too much difference in the dimensions of the 308 Winchester and 300 Winchester Magnum cartridges for the 308 to feed properly out of a 300WM magazine.
If I understood the sales representative at EuroOptic correctly, Accuracy International did make a limited run of left hand AXMC's for the U.S. market however, conversion parts for those rifles are still on order. For the time being, if someone wants a left hand AXMC, they are limited to a rifle that is dedicated to a magnum cartridge. I don't know if things are the same in the U.K.. Certainly, you should talk to the folks at AI as well as EuroOptic and Mile High Shooting for a more definitive answer.
You should not dismiss the Desert Tech based solely on my statement. It is a very capable platform. I'm sure that, with practice, I could become just as proficient with the SRS as the AXMC.
There are, of course, other possibilities:
for the price of one AI AXMC, you can have a gunsmith build two nearly identical rifles chambered for different cartridges. One could be a 308 Winchester and one could be a big magnum such as a 338 LM or Norma Magnum. The downside is you would most likely spend a little more to purchase an optic for each rifle. The positive is not having to re-zero your scope when you change calibers on one multi caliber rifle.
If my experience with the equipment I have featured on this channel has taught me anything, it is that the rifle is not nearly as important as the optic. For example: if I had to use my AI or Desert Tech chambered in, say, 308 to compete with a person armed with a similarly equipped Tikka, I would be worried. I would have little to no room for error.
Much to consider.
Regards!
Thank you for the great reply. It is the same here in the U.K. they have made the long action but the conversation kits are still lacking. It is a real disappointment. I will be extending my system beyond 2 calibers so the AXMC is what I am after. As it most likely has to be in right hand now, I am after a system that I can adjust to fit me perfectly as I will have to shoot a right handed rifle left handed while only having 1 arm. Here in the U.K. the only issue they have is they have not built the magazine well inserts. It seems madness that they are holding out on making the insert when they would open out a massive area of expansion. Again thank you for your reply I really appreciate it. I fully agree with the optic point. I would prefer a cheap rifle with a good optic than an expensive rifle and a cheap optic. Thank again it has really helped.
clapton05martin,
After a phone call to Mile High Shooting, it appears you may be in luck for 308 magazines for the AXMC. Brayden stated that the 308 Winchester magazines for the new AXSR should work for the AXMC since it is simply a standard magazine welded inside of a magnum magazine (no mag adapter needed).
As far as left handed bolts go, Brayden indicated that they have been on order for some time however, a firm delivery date has not been determined.
Good luck on your quest!
@@landsandgroovesproductions8157 Thank you so much for making a call for me. I really appreciate it. I was thinking that I would try and make my own mag adapter or my own magazine with doing that. Welding the internals from a 308 into a long action mag and the adapter problem solved. I am from the U.K but I will email mile high today and see if I can order one to get it here. Here in the U.K you can get everything in left handed however the only part missing is the magazine adapter. It seems silly you would stop that from opening up to a massive market that is really under viewed.
Again thank you so much I will be trying g to get everything tracked down and ordered. I will keep you up dated with pictures of I can.
Cheers
Martin
After changing barrels, how many shots does it take to stabilize the point of impact?
Todd,
Around three shots. The 6.5 Cm conversion that Short Action Customs did for me will be within a half inch of where it was after it settles down. I have found that conversion to be so true that the scope's windage adjustment is within a click of the middle of its adjustment range.
The AI factory 338 and 300 WM barrels will be less than an inch away from where they were before a swap.
Check out EuroOptic's blog where Derek tests the repeatability of his AXMC and ERA TAC scope mount.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the info. Your experience with the rifle is impressive impressive!
Thanks Todd!
I don't claim to be an expert on all things Accuracy International. Just sharing my experience with this rifle. EuroOptic is a good source of information. Mile High Shooting Accessories sells AI products as well.
Vickers Tactical did a video with the AX338 at 2000 meters back in 2014, check it out!

Indeed!
