The new Tikka T1X Rimfire

Like it, will buy one if they someday they will offer it with sites. I know sites are becoming extinct but at the range that's what I enjoy shooting.

Yes I believed it might be possible due to the video with the mag being said to clip into the bottom of the action. However it looked to me like the floor plate was where it clipped into. So I contacted Stoeger and asked. The video made it seem as if the A1 chassis might work. That’s not the case.

I was planning on getting a 6.5 cm A1 and put it in the krg Bravo while using the A1 chassis for the t1x as a type of cool trainer for my 308 in the A1 chassis. Plus I don’t have any 22 rifles in a chassis system. Also it would have been the real system rather than the BS Ruger did with their 22 version of the RPR. Expensive but just on the verge of being doable. Until I confirmed it won’t work. So back to the plan of waiting for a sale on a t3x and putting it in the krg Bravo.

Right now the t1x has the same problem that the Centre fires had for years. A crappy factory stock with few to no options. Until the A1 chassis and Krg Bravo came out I gave tikka a hard pass. Hated the factory stock. Roberson made great stocks for the tikka but high cost and unfortunately short lived.

I will keep an eye out on the t1x but not into it until the stock situation has some options.

I had similar ideas with the tac a1 chassis, though it seems compatible with the wild boar (which is a t3x CTR platform from what it seems) according to these posts http://forum.snipershide.com/threads/tikka-t1x.6841183/page-5

Well it didn't fit in my T3 Robertson or T3 Laminated stock. The magazine well is just a bit too wide to slide in. You could probably Dremel out a small section if you really want to make it fit. (which I wont). Base thread pattern fit T3 bases, but the actual contact area of the base and receiver is (guessing) less than 1/4". It still feel solid enough. Set the trigger at the lowest and its amazing, breaks like glass. Stock isn't so bad, it will have to do, might fit in the new T3X?. Cant wait to try it this weekend. Never shot .17 HMR,will 50 YD zero work??? I will check ballistic.

Just got some Instagram replies from Europe one guy sub MOA at 75yds with the 22lr and another 1.45 at a 100yds

I really hope mine can achieve those numbers

$700 it better be sub MOA my $300 savage mkii was shooting those numbers with standard cci in cheap plastic factory stock out of the box.

IME the MkII holds it's own just fine against $700 CZ rimfire rifles, I don't expect the Tikka to be much different. It's not so much a failing of the more expensive rifles as a testament to the "accuracy per dollar" value provided by the MkII.
 
The savage is very accurate, I had the bbl laminated version. But the tikka offers much more than accuracy and that's what people will pay for. I doubt anyone can beat the accuracy per dollar of the savage.

FWIW I just put a 17HMR barrel kit on my CZ455 and took it to the range yesterday.

I zero'ed at 50 yards. At 25yds I was just over 0.5" low, at 100 yds it was pretty much dead 0. Looking at ballistics table (17 grain) with a 50 yd zero it is pretty flat from 30-130 yards.
