New Tikka T1x rimfire rifle

fidelity · Dec 28, 2018

For those in Western MD, the 22LR version seems to be available in Morgantown ...

This outfit will ship to your FFL, but is charging a bit more ...

I would imagine that Berreta dealers in MD should be able to get them soon if not now.

Whittaker's or Brownells? I ended up cancelling my Whittaker's pre order for the 22LR T1x this past summer. Mine was placed possibly in March.

It was Whittaker's.

I got a chance to take the new Tikka out to the range yesterday afternoon. I wasn't immediately impressed. It shot ok but not as good as I was expecting.

This morning I took the action out to see about planning for bedding to improve things and noticed a wedge that is attached to the stock to take up space in the taper is the only reason that I can see. I took it out and gave the rifle another try this afternoon.

Very different today without the wedge. I grabbed a couple of different brands of ammo to try out and shot some 10 shot groups at 50 yards.

The trigger is adjustable like the other Tikka rifles and I have it set to a consistent 2 lbs. The trigger is just as nice as my T3.

I can't wait to get some more time behind the trigger on this rifle. I have a couple other brands of ammo that I want to try out. So far the CCI is what it likes best.

Nice write up, and shows once again just how notoriously picky rimfires tend to be with ammo selections.

Still, somewhat surprised to see the Aquila Super Extra shoot that noticeably and comparatively poorly in your rifle. I just last week tried some through a CZ that shoots it pretty well.

I agree completely. Not sure if it means anything yet with such a small sample but the two copper jacketed bullets (Aguila and Federal GM) that I have shot well in other rifles were not so good in this one and the two plain lead bullets shot very well.

You’ll know soon enough if you keep doing what you’re doing. That rifle will be an individual. They all are, complete with their own likes and dislikes.

Keep us posted please. Good Luck with it!

Thanks for the range report! The T1x ~~one~~ is on my list for 2019.

Got a new KRG Bravo chassis and rifled titanium bolt handle. Still shooting less than dime size groups at 50 yards. Getting ready for my first MARS match on the 13th. Should be fun.

Just found out they make a Bravo for the 10/22... Looks really good. Very tempting.
