Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles What does 223AI mean?

I knew you guys knew more than you were letting on....

In a 700 L/A and thinking a repeater that's fun,it'd be a 7mmRemMag. Nice BC's at nice speed,with generous magbox latitude,from which to elicit a harmonious throat...all with veddy veddy modest recoil in exchange for the performance.

Arguement could be made,to opt a 40X mod on the L/A's nether regions and run a single shot 338 Ultra or similar(throated for the high BC 300's). It'd edge the .284's in raw performance,but ain't nearly as much fun to shoot,so wouldn't get used nearly as often. Have noticed a "trend" in which sumptin' what is oftener used,that it do induce copious "luck" in all equations. May as well go straight 1.350" bull,HEAVY fill and ADL inlet and stuff the mag cutout with epoxy slathered lead. All to soak recoil and to make it hang solid on terra firma. Purty easy to get such a build bow heavy and a leaded stock would be key in fending that balance issue.


A build of the ilk,though in s/a and a 223AI no less.





Because I've a 338 Ultra,I'd want another 7mm.(grin)









'tue,

Have oft thought of a 223AI on a S/S Seven.

Mebbe some day.









SLM,

As well as crossed-eyes,drooling maw,zero sense of direction,unemployment,lack of motor skills and a vivid [bleep] Imagination.

I'm wheels up on The Freedom Bird,forced to suffer another 2wks of vacation and am hoping I can fit in a BWT.(grin)

Nothing so fun. Yet at least. Got all fall to get them though!

Sir Ingwe may own/shoot a few but I know everything I've ever read on the internet.

Ok.

Cept your tentmate hinted at some Boyota fun you should hang pics of.......

Prayers sent.

If you get some time I would be glad to go over some of the finer points of photography with you..

TFF.

It took me one line to say it, but MA needed some 'splainin for whatever reason. I don't grouse hunt up there, why would I?

I'll be up there in the woods working hard and shooting LR today. Which is more than the [bleep] can say, as per usual.

Enjoy your computer screens and vivid Imaginations! I know you will. It's what you Do. As in, Nothing.

And SLM, enjoy your goofy hat. Talk about sweet baby jeebus.... got Him hidden in there?

Trav' a 7mm would trump a .338 in fun. Who the [bleep] wants to sit behind a 338 for an MTM ammo box full of fun? Put together a 7RM and enjoy the schit out of it!

And GFY.

Have fun not seeing grouse and shooting inanimate objects. We're very impressed.

I am in full agreement neighbor. Look how warm our fire doth burneth. It is akin to dogs and cats living together.

God bless, GFY, and have a great day,
Travis

Even my amateur ass can hit schit at 1k with the 162 A-Max, that bullet is GD magical. +1 on the 7RM.

There is some dark voodoo that was put into that pill. When they developed it Stick put the blood of a thousand Blacktails into the lead vat...or so the legend goes.

Thanks. Did ya miss me?

Shot the new .223AI today with Hornady .223 super performance 75gr BTHP Match to fire-form some cases.

To sum it up: Nula rifles are worth every penny Mr. Forbes charges for one. Four to get it close at 50yards, then the first two groups at 100yards. With a Leupold 6x36 with a fat HD reticle.





There is a 200yard group, but some luck was definitely involved with the HD and you probably would call me a lier anyway.

Nice...

Is it an 8 twist?


Travis

Nice! HD works well with the diamond targets.

What contour did you go with on the barrel?

Looks like a shooter! Glad to see NULA rifles now have paint jobs that were applied by someone with a bit more artistic talent than a Kindergardener.

My only question, why the Heavy Duplex?

Also, you suck. I want one now.

8 twist.

HD because Deer Season is coming on and I like it for low light. Will change it out next year for Groundhogs.
