My old one was second hand and an early model.
It shot very well but the stock was the one without the adjustable cheekpiece and didnt really fit me properly.
I always regretted selling it though.
When I finally took the plunge and bought Davids it was like getting an old friend back, only a better friend with the adjustable cheekpiece and a spigotted thread for the
Sound Mod.

I also had the benefit of the loads I had developed for my old one. Strangely though I find my new one performs bets with SMK 180g bullets wheres my older one preferred 155g SMK.

That particular AI worked incredibly well with 190 SMKs at 1200 yards.

I need to order a couple of AI/AE MkIIIs in for a job and delivery is currently sometime November, given AIs recent track record I have my fingers crossed for Christmas....

Must give some a try.

I was out shooting this morning. The gun shot a 10 shot 0.5 inch group at 100 yds.

I love it

Told you so.....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

I thought I'll get my AWs' worth. I had mine since 1995 and still haven't got bored with it yet(told my missus that she'll have to go first, if I had to get rid of anything :shakeshout: ).
