    The Fix from Q

    My .308 barrel is a pain to remove after shooting 80+ rounds between barrel changes, I mostly shoot sub-sonic .308 too and all factory loads. Twisting it back and forth while pulling on it makes it easier. My proof 6.5cm barrel is easy to pull even after shooting ~300 rounds, I've never had an...

    Tikka T1X

    Thanks for that. What chassis’s are the tan and black one?

    @midSCarolina gave you the right ring heights. If you change to the shorter top rail, you can get by with lower rings. I had the Warne 1.4 or 1.44(can’t remeber) rings on my Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50 and there was less than a 1/16th of clearance on the objective end when I put Butler Creek scope...

    The Fix from Q

    It nice seeing that they have prototypes for accessories, but it seems like most of these were teased almost a year ago. It would be nice if a third party manufacturer, like Magpul, would offer rail accessories and other items. I believe they open-sourced the specs for their Q-sert system, don’t...

    Tikka T1X

    EuroOptic has .22lr models in stock. Mine shipped from them last week. Should have it in my hands Thursday or Friday depending on when my FFL gets it logged in.

    I’m hiding up here in Alaska. Luckily where I’m at doesn’t get too cold, just lots of wind and rain.

    Took my fix too the range. I can’t decide if the Proof barrel prefers 147gr or 140gr factory Hornady Match ammo better. Both photos are the Hornady 147gr Match ammo. The 100yd target shows my 5 round sighter to adjust from the Hornady 140gr. The bottom right group I realized I was fighting...

    Tikka T1X

    That looks more like what I had in mind, and the price seems pretty reasonable too. I’m assuming both the Oryx and KRG Bravo will retain the factory mag?

    Tikka T1X

    I think I remember seeing it in this thread, but who has successfully mounted their T1X into a chassis or stock? I know KRG will be releasing their Bravo stock later this month or early April, but I would prefer something with a AR style pistol grip.

    I’ll take two of these, and an Arca rail if you have any of those left.

    Tikka T1X

    EuroOptic got them in stock too. Mine will be shipping tomorrow. Now the hunt is on for a stock/chassis and an optic.

    Tikka T1X

    Thanks for the tip, called them and placed an order. I’m number three on the backorder list. Now to patiently impatiently wait, and try to decide which stock to get. What stocks have people installed that haven’t required modifications?

    Tikka T1X

    Was the stock only listed on the site or did they have some in stock? They show out of stock in all colors on KRG’s website for the T1x Anyone have any leads on a T1X in .22 available to order? My local FFL hasn’t heard back from their Tikka supplier.

    The Fix from Q

    @Movistar Q made tool for the fix, it has 4 teeth to grab the barrel nut instead of 3. I posted a pic of it a page or two back. @Scotch_egg So far I’ve had good luck with maintaining zero when I’ve done my barrel swaps. I think I’ve done about a dozen swaps so far. @Gotlag1789 Vert grip...

    Which barrel nut tool do you have? I have both of them but prefer the new one, seems to provide a better grip on the barrel nut. How was it pulling the .308 barrel out, stuff at all?

    Tikka T1X

    That is exactly what I was wanting to read. I am a fan of Tikka, wish I had more than just the T3, but just haven't brought myself to pick anything else up. I was leaning towards purchasing a RPR .22, but after seeing Tikka offer the T1X, and it comes with a threaded barrel, I feel like the...

    Tikka T1X

    Been watching and reading through this thread and am curious on those that have the .22LR version on what your overall thoughts are on the rifle. I am looking at picking one up, if I can find one in stock somewhere, but my only hesitation is I'm not a fan of Tikka's stocks. I know it is a fairly...

    The Fix from Q

    I used the RSA QD Mount and it worked well. I just didn’t like how it hung off the side of the rail, seemed like an extra snag point for hiking through thick brush. Plus I switched to the short top rail, so it’s no longer an option.

    That is something I’d be interested in buying. Are you going to do a group buy for them?

    The Fix from Q

    FedEx finally showed up with the new barrel wrench tool. I was able to fully strip and reassemble the rifle using just the tool. I did verify torques after tightening everything up with the new tool. It has two points to slide a 5/16” T25 bit in to use as a handle. Has a 1/2” and 3/8” drive...
