    Tikka T1X

    Scheels had a T1X 22LR for $469. It felt great, typical Tikka smooth action. Just waiting for my wife to go out of town which is the only time I can sneak guns into the house.

    Welcome. I'm also in Rapid City and have a Tikka in a KRG X-Ray.

    I've only shot factory Hornady 223 55 grain V-Max which groups great.

    Finally shot my new Tikka T3X Varmint. The only changes I did was add the Dave Yo spring and drop it into a KRG X-Ray. This is Hornady 223 55 grain VMAX at 100 yards.

    Which Rings for 50mm Scope on Tikka T3 Tactical

    I went with .97 Vortex Precision Matched Rings. Fyi, .87 will work if you want the scope to be as low as possible.

    2 weeks ago SWFA had the FFP 5-25x50 in MOA. I got mine last week.

    I have a T3X Varmint 223 in the X-Ray. In order for my Accurate Mag to fit, I have to place the front lip of the magazine in first.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex PST Gen II

    I don't know much about retail, but wouldn't the big box stores get the Vortex PSTs before the smaller mom and pop shops?

    KRG X Ray vs XLR Element?

    I'm really glad I found this forum and thread. I'm looking at the KRG X-RAY (FDE) (w/ spigot mount and qd sling plate) vs the XLR carbon which is $130 more. Still tilting towards the KRG as I like both polymer and FDE. FWIW, this is for my Tikka T3X Varminint 223. Am I understanding this...

    Thanks for the response. How's the McM A3 working out for you? Notice any difference in accuracy compared to the X-Ray chassis?

    Just curious if you're still using the MDT 223 mags or if you have switched to Accurate Mag. I ask because I'm considering dropping my T3X 223 Varmint into the X-Ray Chassis.

    Hello from The Black Hills

    Thanks Mike. Yeah, First Stop is a great place.

    I'll look into the X-ray by KRG and Element Chassis by XLR. Anyone else have any more suggestions? I really wish a local retailer would carry these in stock so you can play with them. It's hard to make a big ticket decision when all you have are pictures on a website.

    That's good to know. I'm fairly knew to bolt action rifles. My current prairie dog gun is a Daniel Defense M4V7. May I ask what scope you're using on your rig?

    Tikka T3 Thread

    I just got a Tikka T3X Varmint in 223. I plan on using this as a prairie dog gun. Is it in poor taste to put in a chassis? Is this something that's frowned upon or does nobody give a damn?
