One thing I can say is not to use an AT-One if you are looking to keep the weight down. This particular stock weighs three pounds. With the scope, the rifle weighs about 10 pounds. That is fine for me, but it might not be what you're after.

Nice action. With your mags set to that OAL, 100 grain bullets will fit easily. My rifle likes the heavier bullets 70-90 grains. I had no problems getting consistent .5 to .75 inch groups at 100 yd with several bullets. It isn't finicky, much like the parent, the 223. Have fun!


Safe Shooting!
