Vision / Accuracy Obsession Accuracy International AI AW/AT/AX Short Action Chassis

Vision Products design and produce high quality firearm accessories for users around the world. They are proudly made in Norway by Vision & Design AS which is associated with Ulfhednar.

For SHORT ACTIONS only.

The AO/Vision chassis is the first competition-oriented system for the Accuracy International (AI) short action rifle platform.  Designed in partnership with Accuracy Obsession in the USA and Vision & Design in Norway, it perfectly combines the aesthetics of the “classic” AI rifle with modern features demanded by competitive shooters around the world.  It is machined out of 7075-Al with exacting tolerances in Norway.

NOTE 1: This listing is only for the chassis body itself and the bolts/screws required for the install. All other parts in the images are not included.

NOTE 2: This chassis is supplied in raw aluminium finish only. You can have this sprayed by your own cerakote applicator who can match it to the exact shade of the rest of your rifle.  All photos showing it cerakoted in Black/FDE/ODG is only for reference so you can see what it looks like when finished. 

The forend features a continuous 16” flat bottom going all the way to the magwell and an ARCA spec dovetail that allows mounting of many different brands’ bipod/tripod clamps.  The forend height is 1” closer to the barrel bore axis than a factory AT or AX rifle, which lowers the center of gravity when shooting off props and significantly improves stability, recoil impulse, and ability to follow trace to the target.  Standard AW magazines work with the chassis, and a flared magwell makes reloads fast and easy.

Inside the forend there are provisions to mount optional internal weights totaling 2 lbs to help tune the balance and reduce felt recoil.  8 M-Lok slots on each side and bottom provide ample space for accessories and optional external weights for further tuning the balance to each shooters’ preference.  The chassis will work with Vision & Design external weights, in addition to industry standards like MDT external weights.

A full-length enclosed forend tube is available (not included), as well as a shortened NV bridge (not included).  Both are available with a 20 MOA picatinny rail for NV optics that is co-linear with the factory AI “tall” action rail.

The chassis is compatible with any Accuracy International AW308, AT, or AX short actions.  Barrels as short as 16.5” will work with the chassis with AT and AX actions that have the QuickLoc barrel feature (AW actions require the use of a vise for barrel changes and may need a slightly longer barrel to properly torque to the action).  It is ambidextrous, so it will work equally well with RH or LH actions.

It will NOT fit any other rifle manufacturer other than AI, it will also not fit long action/magnum AI rifles such as AWM338, AXMC or AXSR.

NOTE: To fit you will need to de-bond the factory action, clean and prep the action and the Vision chassis, then bonding the two together with epoxy (not included).  Users may decide to try the chassis without bonding, but it is recommended to bond them together for ultimate consistency and resistance to any barrel impact related zero shifts.
