AI question from a newbie

Hi All,

I have a few questions regarding AI rifles that you guys might be able to help with.

Do they sell all models to civilian shooters including the AXMC?

Is there a difference between the AT and AX apart from the chassis?

Is the AICS Tikka T3 version going to happen?

By the time you factor in everything for a chassis conversion it is knocking on the door of £3k anyway so I think an extra £2k for an AXMC with the option of changing barrels is actually quite reasonable.

There are a few AI fans on here so they should be along to answer your other questions, but to the best of my knowledge all AI rifles are sold in the UK (providing they are bolt-action and meet the barrel/overall length spec

You can buy all models barring the semi/auto versions

The AT and the AX have the same action and bolt, just different chassis. obviously the AXMC also come in the magnum size which at the moment the AT is only the .308 size.

The T3 was meant to be out this year but probably wont be until next year if they do decide to proceed with it.

This is 2nd hand info, but according to http://www.sportingservices.co.uk/

"Please Note: We have recently heard that Accuracy International will not be making the new AICS kits for Tikka or Savage rifles."
