Yea, nothing a trip to HD cant get fixed for 1 dollar. Go pick up a stainless bolt or just drop some oil on it.
Mine showed up green, pictured black. I ordered 2. Both came in as green. Sent them a message. Sent me two more black ones free of charge. So now I have 4... lol My cost per riser, 16 bucks now. LOL Pretty good deal! Super sturdy.
Perks of the adjustable risers that drill into it! Loosen, drop and its good to go.

I never liked any riser that didnt bolt or glue on. As its a pain to deal with ever shifting strapped on cheek rest/risers.

I have one of the amazon ones on a savage. didn't want to drill the stock, so i set it where i wanted it, then secured it with two blobs of caulking in the void. its stuck, but if i ever want to remove it, i can peel off the caulking and its like it was never there, (already removed once to test the theory)
I think I used black mono. just wish the riser didn't have the holes for the bolts, but it works for what it is

Don’t blame yah Buck for not wanting to put holes in such nicely figured piece of wood!I have a cheek riser on my CZ-VMTR that I 'made' from 'mouse-pad and Duck tape. It's been in place for 2-years with Alien TapeI needed the height due to a 419-30* rail and 8-34x56mm FFP scope. I just couldn't drill that butt

Another option for no drilling, not for everyone for sure but working for me. Bolt comes out fine and lucked out it’s the perfect height for me. IIRC 50-60$ on Azon came with couple neoprene type pads like mousepad but thicker you can add or not for slight recoil mitigation, not as good as limbsaver but it’s something.
Finally had a bit of time to install the raiser from Solely https://www.alflahertys.com/
Thanks for the suggestion!
Velcro mount may sound to some as a cheaper solution. Well, the riser sits solid.It may be not as easy to precisely adjust as screw mount but, it's easy enough to find the perfect fit. After all, that's my rifle and I don't foresee a need for frequent adjustments.
The bolt can be easily removed with raiser in place. Mind you, my scope has fairly long eye relief. Otoh, there is so much space between the ocular and the raiser that ,IMHO, it shouldn't be a problem with any scope on T1x.
Oh, the plastic itself is on heavy duty side and solid.
To top it all of, I was able to get it in the colour that perfectly matches Tikka Coyote Brown!
All in all, I'm happy with it!

Sharp? Well, I take it as a complement since a Sharp rifle is on my dream list... Having a 45-70 HR Shicari and a sharp Tikka, I'm almost there...Looks quite sharp
So was / is Sharp... Yup, that's what happens when you try to talk reason to a guy who gave up on anything "auto". Well, a belt fed could convince me to change my mind but that's beyond reality in this country...
