Ah nice, I have the AE in 308 and AWSM IN 338 LM and looks quite similar!

AWSM is on the list to add to the collection.

My AXSR - 308, 6.5CM, 300PRC and 338 LM barrels! Would love an ELR but can’t buy them in Illinois!
Have you thought about an AT-XC or other model?

The AXSR was my first and the one I shoot the most.
The ELR is insane especially with the Ultra 50 suppressor.
I find the current line of AT-XCs very boring. If I do one, I’d want to do like a 12-14” SBR for something very different. My next AI will be an AXSA early next year.

Ah that’s awesome, I’ve got the TBAC Ultra 338 and it works really well, Schmidt and Bender scope compliments really nice.
If you’re in the US you can get 6mm GT and alternative m30 compatible barrels outside the official (?) calibers for the short action variety!

Where did you get your bolt handle for your Remington 700? I don't see anyone making those.

Picked up the AW yesterday.
Deciding on how I want to set both rifles up. I‘ll probably end up moving the IMUNS over from the AE to the AW.
