Tikka T1X or...?

[skwerl]

If you like your 452 you will love the 457 .
The Tika has a wonderful action just have to lose the stock.

I purchased one a couple months ago. In 17HMR, added KRG Bravo stock to it. My new gopher rifle. Replace my CZ452 as my primary gopher getter. I like the aftermarket support that T1x has. Shorter bolt lift is much nicer, really my biggest complaint about the CZ.

Able to get the trigger down to 1.5 lbs with factory adjustment. Mine is good, nothing I would change unless I go to aftermarket 2 stage. I like 2 stage triggers.

Only made it to the range one time before they closed to try out. Not best of conditions but I would say around 1 inch 10 shot group at 100m. All I need for gophers. What my CZ does as well. Need a warmer less windy day to play with it as far as trying to see which brand of ammo it will like best. It should be field tested soon as the land is drying up finally.

If I was to start over and buy again with no budget I'd go Vudoo V-22.

But no regrets with my CZ457 MTR and quite enjoying modifying the rifle to my liking. Next upgrade I'm considering... LILJA 457 16 3/4″ threaded barrel.

I am curious as to why your LSS-RF chassis has 5 mlok slots and not the 4 shown on their website.

Looks like the photo got chopped and nobody noticed it

Your image above is the center fire chassis.

IIRC the difference between the two chassis is the magazine. Everything else is the same dimensions.

My 700 beside the 457.

Nope. Right from their website on the LSS-RF page.

They have picture of the 455 in the 4 slot chassis. I have pictures from the interwebs with the T1X in the LSS-RF chassis with the 4 slots. Maybe there has been an update?

What ever makes you happy then...

Nothing to do with anyone’s happiness. I was considering the chassis for a T1X and was just wondering if the 5 slot was particular to the 457 (which I prefer based on your pictures) or an update to the 4 slot shown on MDT’s LSS-RF page.

Update: I contacted MDT, the 5 slot LSS-RF is particular to the CZ457. The rest are 4 slot.

Here is my T1X. New MDT LSS-RF gen-2, has 4 M-Loc slots. I lucked out with the trigger, the internal adjustment brought it down to less than a pound, no creep and breaks like a glass rod.

May 29th update. Got to the range this morning. I managed to shoot a couple of 1/2” groups at 50 yard and 1” at 100 yards in between the variable wind (up to 15 kph). I could tell when it was good to shoot because the black flies would get behind my glasses. I wish more of the groups were sub MOA but my wind reading skills need improvement. No trouble hitting the 200 yard gong every time though (not sure if it is a 6 or 8 inch). Ammo was CCI AR-Tactical.
