Thats quite an outfit, Peter and a rare beast indeed
Attached are a couple of pictures of my AW in its chest - I've had it for around three years now.
Its an early AW - dated '93 on the body. I contacted Sporting Services (the UKagent for AI) shortly after buying it to try and get any history on the rifle as the seller told me it was part of a cancelled military contract.
It turns out it was one of Accuracy International's demo rifles. Quite a nice thought unless you have seen any of Accuracy International promotional videos where they literally bounce the butt of the rifle on the ground between shooting test groups.
Buy the rifle not the story............
Anyway what ever has happened to it in its distant past it shoots beautifully - easily half minute of angle groups.
Optics are excellent - S&B 3-12 x 50 with AI mildot and range finding reticule.
Items in the transit case (later vintage than the rifle) include scope sunshade and longer lens covers for when its fitted, spare mag, cleaning kit, rod and rod guide, patches, iron sights in pouch, sling, lens cloth, butt spacers, muzzle cap, breech brush and user manual.
Its a wonderful bit of kit - but not quite an L96.........
