I got mine brand new for 800$ shipped brand new from a guy that bought it and never mounted it.

 

Took me about 5 minutes to install, unscrew two screws, drop the receiver in and screw it in lol.

I prefer pissing in someone's cheerios thank you very much . It has been my experience that an AICS (obviously) cant make a crappy barrel shoot, but on a decent barreled action they can shrink up groups over an unbedded stock. So I was hoping for a little before and after to see if it worked out that way for the op. I have also seen it go the other way but this has been traced back to improper installation.(think torque values). I have also seen some play with the torque values front to back and achieve some interesting results with improving accuracy. I like the feel of a McMillan A5 better but not enough to sway me from the excellent AI mag system. The only two things I didnt like about the AICS is that it has a very distinct (annoying) ring to it when fired. And I founfd it very heavy. I never put em side by side on a scale but my AICS with a 20" barreled action felt a lot heavier than my AIAW with a 26" barrel. Go figure..

It's supposed to be torqued to 6lbs I believe. But when I go to the range maybe I'll take the factory stock as well to see if there is a significant accuracy difference. Being that it takes less than five minutes to install it shouldn't be a problem.

[Shane45 807]

That is too high. 6lbs = 72 inch pounds. spec calls for 65 inch pounds.

[Fallout 3]

6nm is what i meant. i just tightened it until snug when the screws kind of just spun into place. I have to pick up a torque wrench from advance auto in the next couple of days. trying to hit range 14 sunday and take it for a spin

[Secret Squirrel 3]

Beautiful, I love that stock.

[Fallout 3]

thanks, weighed it a few days ago, 13.5 lbs unloaded but it feels real solid.

 

I finally found a torque wrench from 20-200inch pounds and got the torque spec squared up. I only had it at about 55 instead of 65. Hopefully taking it to range-14 sunday if all goes well.

BTW if you ever decide you dont dig the thumb hole, you can get different skins for it.

They also make the accustack which is nice. Since you have a 1.5 its nice for when you have to pull your bolt for cleaning.
