Nice groups. What ammo were you shooting? My T1x is under the Christmas tree. I will be on the range next week with it.
Using CCI Subsonic HP 22LR, my T1X loves it. Going back to the range this afternoon, I’m going to compare a few different loads to the CCI Subsonic HP including Wolf Match Extra. Also going to take my chronometer to start building a dope sheet.
Thanks for the details. I can hardly wait to shoot this rifle.
If someone is thinking about buying the GRS Berserk stock for their T1x Euro Optic just released a sale on them at 25% off. I was planning to try the factory stock for awhile, but couldn’t pass up that deal.
Thanks for the heads-up. Grabbed one of the brown ones.
Picked up my .17hmr from my ffl. Gun feels great and the factory stock isn't the worst. I swapped the vertical grip on to it from my ctr stock and threaded my suppressor on the end. It feels really good but I will still upgrade the stock at some point. Have some scope rings coming in Mon. I expect this to be one of my favorite rifles and I will be buying a .22 version when they are more available or the 16" is released.
What distance were the groups shot at?
25 yds. 50 yds was about the same after a
couple sighters. Then things went sideways. Just to get started shooting because the T1X down come with a rail, I needed a rail; the armour at my range adapted an off the shelf 11mm dovetail rail that worked very well for the first 300 to 500 rounds then rail started torquing left and right. The armour at A3 has ordered rails from EGW and DP for a possible solution until the Tikka community produce the ideal benchmark solution. I should be sack on the 50 and 100 yd range this weekend and report back.
The EGW rail for the CZ works. I think the link is in the thread about mounts. I have pictures earlier in this thread with it.
I am 100% sure that you guys in US do not need to wait 6 month, to get your rifles.
I do know that this rifle has been ordered over 20 000 unit global, so US customers are one really big part of that, so i am sure, that in the next few months, there will be 22LR T1X rifles, since in Finland we did get the 20" 22LR rifles over a month ago and no there are 16" 22LR rifles, so i bet that the container is coming to US any days now, this is what i hope.
You guys do the the best tuning on any rifle, so i am kind of keen to see, what kind of masterpieces you are doing of T1X rifles
I lack the patience virtue, and a local shop has a 20" in stock. Other than weight savings is there a strong reason to wait for the 16" version to be available?
I will have my .22 20" on wednesday just have to wait for the 25moa DIP rail. my question is should I deal with the standard stock till KRG comes out with one or should I get a t3x butt pad, vertical grip and a forend?
@TimResin
I found the standard stock hard to get a good cheek weld with as is, if going the vertical grip/wide forend / buttpad upgrade, you should strongly consider either a kydex saddle cheeck peice or a triad stock pack. If you are going to put $100 ish in all of that with the intentions of upgrading later that $100 would get you closer to a more ergonomic (and probably heavier stock, (may be a + or minus depending on how you use it).
These may not be plug and play T3 to T1x options but they are within the realm of doable...

Courious, do you know of a Finnish or any European manufacturers that make a scope rail for the T1X? I’m also looking for source to purchase extra T1X mags. Can’t seem to find the proper T1X scope rail and mags here in the states. Happy New Year’s.

What don't you like about the DIP rail made here in the United States?

As a temporary fix until there is a T1X solution for a MPA BA chassis and compatible AICS mag, I’ve installed the T3X butt pad, vertical grip and forend on my OEM T1X chassis; they fit perfectly and function great. I bought some off the shelf adhesive neoprene sheeck rest material, this neoprene has increased NPA and is an effective fix until a long term solution for my MPA BA is available.
My local armour and I weren’t aware that the DIP 11mm dovetail rail system was compatible with the TX1 profile. Please post the DIP rail model so that I can order it right away. Thanks for the tip.
@mperry07
aics compatible mags are not necessary, I have documented the modifications necessary to a MPA tikka chassis in this thread, anybody with a mill can make it work and the stock will still be usable with a centerfire w/aics mags
I know that they do make picatinny rail for T1X in down under.

About every descent 22 rifle out there can shoot tight groups at 25 yards. 50 yards is the starting point of seeing what a 22 rifle is actually shooting like and then again at 100 yards to see it's true potential. It seems like it may take a while to get enough of these rifles out there to start seeing someone testing at 100 yards and beyond though.
Mounted the Vortex PST 3-15, this optic seems to be ideal for me out to 200-400 yds. Still sorting out the right dovetail rail. Viking78 provides us with some good leads.
Received contessa 20 moa rail today from Europtic
Seems well made and fit perfectly
What did it take to make the T1X fit into the Bravo?
There was a guy that used the XLR and modified the Tikka action to work in the chassis. My only concern is that the magazine would not be self centering and easy to load in. Another thought was to take an AICS type mag and cut the top off and epoxy the tikka .22 mag into it. This would allow for the mag well to be used as intended.
If you don't mind me asking why did you sell your Vudoo?
No particular reason it shot really well, I just don't go shooting as often a I would like so having over $2k in a . 22lr was just a little much. Plus I used some of the funds to have a Impact Precision built up for me. I figure sooner or later I will own another Vudoo at some point in time.
Just a heads up, I've been working with Cameron at Murphy Precision on a 30MOA rail for the T1x. I should get the finished version in a few days. If it's as I expect it will be, based on the first one, it should be a great option for those who want a stainless steel or titanium full Picatinny scope rail. I will post some pics once it arrives.
Sterk is also doing goodies for T1X.
I love this guru swept bolt handle in T3 rifle.

Where are you shooting out to 400 yrds in Michigan? Where did you get your Tikka 1X at in Michigan?
Took my new T1X today, for the first time. Groups were shot at 50 yds. I posted the small group and the Agg. for 4 groups. It was windy, up to 15 mph at times. I had many groups, with 4 in one hole and 1 out. My total agg. for 24 groups was 0.3842". CCI SV ran 0.400" , SK Std+ ran 0.450", Eley Club ran 0.456". I am very pleased with my results today. I think it would do much better in less windy conditions.

This was shot at 150 yds. Wolf Target is at 7 O'clock, 0.75" for 5 shots. SK Std+ at 2 O'clock ran 1.25"
I cut some match sticks, and split some playing cards, at 50 yds. I cut the Ace with the first shot. The other took 5 shot to cut. I did mark it on the third round.

I'm pretty sure you can use any compatible Tikka centerpiece chassis

T3 stocks are NOT drop in, I have fit 3 separate chassis in this thread, KRG,MPA,and TIKKA TAC1 and all needed work on a milling machine.

I emailed KRG a week or so back, they replied that they should have something for the T1X at the Shot Show. J.Allen said they were looking into it and MDT is as well.
Not seeing a lot of 50 and 100yard posted groups on the t1x .22 and .17..... straight up, no BS, hows the accuracy?
Kicking around getting on in 17hmr.... I’m actually rather happy with my RPR .22lr so I’m kicking around getting the 17hmr.

Holy cow! I'm new to precision 22s, so is this common out-of-box performance for Tikka T1xs?!?
