    KRG Bravo Tikka T1x Balance

    I did not send the T1X off to Gary Eliseo for a Shilen... probably should have, but the OEM barrel shoots well.

    SOLD WTS Glock 34 G5, KKM barrel

    Having already tried one aftermarket barrel in G34.5... did this KKM give any different chrono #s compared to the OEM barrel? Higher velocity than the factory barrel?

    Another FNG scope recommendation for a range toy.....

    Have both the Cronus 4.5-29 and ETR 3-18 mounted on Tikka T1Xs... can watch Eley Match bullets in flight with both. After using the ETR for a year I thought the Cronus was going to be some nice upgrade, but have to say it was kinda disappointing... the 3-18 is really nice glass, the Cronus...

    Tikka T1X

    You might ask Gary Eliseo since he rebarrels T1Xs, he might have OEM barrels that were swapped for Shilen rachets [email protected]

    JP JPRFX 22 rifle

    My standard JP22 has never broken anything... however, it only gets 3000 rds annually, total under 12K. Multiple variables, in addition to the operating system; round count (stress), ammo selection and "depending on the trigger"... I have a Geissele HSNM under the JP22 with DMR springs and its...

    Tikka T1X

    AFAIK Brownells was selling the Mountain Tactical T1X mag catch... Brownells shows out of stock and Mountain Tactical no longer shows them on the site... Anarchy Outdoors seems to have a plastic extended catch for sale.

    KRG Bravo Tikka T1x Balance

    beetroot, are you happy with the 25.5” medium palma barrel? Any pics posted here? Gary Eliseo will install a .900" Shilen barrel for a reasonable price but doesn't have them in stock, they're on backorder. I'm trying to decide if a 24" Shilen would be enough extra weight up front. Also kind...

    JP JPRFX 22 rifle

    Thanks! I'll try modifying the bolt catch spring... at $65 shipped from JP, all I rec'd was the catch itself 🤣

    JP JPRFX 22 rifle

    Agreed, mags are a huge deal. Finally divested all 10/22s and RPRR because the mags were always deforming the bullets. I don't use the JP22 past 100y, mostly 50y and for Appleseed, CMP Sporter it works great, accurate & reliable. Because my $500 LRBHO experiment failed, I don't see any...

    JP JPRFX 22 rifle

    I have a "normal" JP22 upper, bought their horribly expensive bolt catch, built a dedicated lower for it, have the Kriss 15rd mags... they only lockback occasionally. Not sure the bolt catch is compatible with Aero M4E1 lower. Got some Wolff tube mag springs, cut to Kriss length, increased the...

    What Tuner did you install? Just like thesniper my T1X is butt-heavy... have MDT XRS fore-end weight, mlok weights, still doesn't balance forward without the heavy bag. When I went looking for tuners, found these: https://www.pmatool.com/pma-barrel-tuner-1-2-28-threads/...

    Christensen Arms MPR RIMFIRE!

    I must be strange, because I detest 10/22 rotary mags... guaranteed to deform bullets on feedramp, every mag has its own integral ramp. They require constant cleaning and spring tuning maintenance to keep running after only a few thousand rounds. You can load them with the maglula tool and it...

    Recommend a place to have my glock slide cut for a RMR.

    +1 for Maple Leaf Firearms... great LEO/MIL discount. Both guns they did for me arrived in quality packaging with Holosuns zeroed and ready to shoot.

    Tikka T1X

    Cheek riser for Tikka T1X OEM stock... the $16 Amazon Stock-Tek works just fine. Installation is identical to KalixTeknik, works the same as the $150 Kalix. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5CNXB54

    Luke on here makes a nice 3D bolt knob for the T1X

    Tikka T1X

    Just curious... are you using the OEM bolt knob or aftermarket bent? I had weak ejection when using the bent Sterk bolt handles. Switched to Luke's big knob on the OEM handle & ejection improved to 99% reliable, I had one empty case that didn't kick out at the last match, and that easily could...

    CZ 457

    The walnut on this MTR is beautiful... wanted a cheek riser but didn't want to permanently alter the walnut. This Brit has a great solution, but I don't have a bandsaw https://youtu.be/B0HQzRWHsNc?si=G80yJOmYCZs8Gylc So I tried a cheap Amazon leather riser, which works well but is in the way...

    CZ 457

    Not on 457 yet, but put a Jard in a Tikka T1X for a 14oz trigger. Have not adjusted it yet, it was 14oz out of the packaging. Its a two-stage, as shown in the vid there's far more movement than the stock trigger... but coming from Geissele HSNM in ARs, I like the Jard, I'm used to more...

    Tikka T1X

    Am I the only T1X owner who wants aluminum bottom metal in OEM trigger guard profile? DIP, Mountain Tactical & others make angular trigger guards, but I prefer the rounded OEM look like this T3X unit...

    Nearly free Tikka T1x oversized bolt knobs

    LOL That sounds like a dumbass move I'm capable of... it works great though. If you have any left, I'll try one right-side up next :ROFLMAO:
