SPS AI AXMC Sniper Rifle Series

Description
SPS AI AXMC Series

V1.4.0
Update to rifle bones position, cheek comb and a few other minor tweaks.

V1.1.0
Retexture of all rifles.
Two new ammunition types added - Berger .338 OTM and .308 Juggernaut OTM which, although primarily aimed at when using ACE3, should better balance the calibres available.

This mod brings you the Accuracy International AXMC series of sniper rifles.
At present, all 3 calibres are available but only in the longest barrel options.
This means .338 Lapua Magnum in 27” barrel, .300 WinMag in 26” barrel and .308Win (7.62x51mm NATO) in 26” barrel.
All 5 factory colours are available.

The mod features custom ammo (although this is primarily tuned to suit the ACE3 environment – compatibility mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=1511234414) as well as manual bolting.
The manual bolting/reloading is setup so continuing to hold your breath or the trigger after firing will delay the bolting/reloading to allow view through optics of the fall of shot on target.
Note: this is the stand-alone version of the AI AXMC rifles – these rifles have been included in SPS-Weapons and SPS-Weapons-Vanilla-Version.

Thanks go to:
BI for making the game we all love

Thanks for the update I totally get you’re slammed, but please consider the AX50 when you get a spare minute, the Accuracy International AX50 is an absolute dream platform for long range play unique look, superb ergonomics, and ELR ballistics that’d sit somewhere between a TAC-50’s reach and a modern precision chassis it would be insanely popular with SPS players who love authentic extreme range sniping. Really appreciate all the work you’ve already put into SPS and would be absolutely stoked to see this added whenever you can squeeze it in Thanx S!.

I hope to do the AX50 ELR at some point but not getting much time at the moment, I'm afraid

Love the mod, Thank you
How about a 12.7, Something like a McMillan TAC-50

@Steve Yes i know the standard and they are compatible each other. Ammos physical size is also different. Shouldn't the guns name be different if .308 ammo isn't available or are you planning to bring some love for .308 to the game, that would be very nice addition? Plz? ;)

@baldtunE
7.62x51 is the NATO standard of .308. They are identical calibre - a bit like .223 and 5.56x45.
Technically, they are not identical. .308 has a higher max pressure than 7.62 and 5.56 has a higher max pressure than .223 but discounting this, they are interchangeable.

When selecting any of .308 version in arsenal , magazine says 7.62mm, typo or?

hi, would you consider implementing a bolt action animation? i believe toadie/niarms have open source animations

@AdamTheWold#550 as long as it's not monetised, yes

Is isnt available in Editor in the Weapons section, So i can't place it or use a rifle for a composition. Do you know how to bypass that ?
Thx
