Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Tikka T1X .22

Picked up a Tikka T1X in .22 LR the other day and took it out to the range last evening. Trigger is still a bit heavy but am very pleased with the accuracy so far. I have a CZ 452 Ultra Lux and I do believe the Tikka will absolutely give it a run for its money once the trigger gets adjusted...

RWS Target and plain ole Federal Champion were most accurate so far. SK Standard did pretty well too. Both are 5 shot groups at 50 yards on bags on a bench outside.

I'm interested in picking one of these up, in 22 LR, but I need it in left hand. So far, all I've seen have been in 17 HMR.

But this is on my to-get list.

When I can lay hands on a 16 inch 22 lr, I will own one.

They were down to the last 2 at my local gun store and I was tickled to get one.

Is yours a 16 inch barrel or 20"?

I have one and it shoots CCI standard velocity and Lapua center x into itty bitty groups. Shoots a lot of other things extremely well also. Awesome rifle.

I'm also on the hunt for a LH 20" threaded one. I bought the 17 HMR and feel I need the 22 to complete the set. Yeah, I think like that...

How does the 17HMR perform? I've got the 20" 22lr version and it's the most accurate 22 that I've ever owned... considering the addition of a 17 to compliment it.

I would also like to have the 17 to match my 22. And mine is the 20” version as well. It’s a hammer

I have a 17hmr and love it. Shoots great, great trigger, and I like the magazine.

Only bitch is the matte finish on the barrel, the blueing is thin. Stainless would be nice.

Been looking for a RH .22.
No one seems to have had any in forever.
Want a 16”.

My buddy has a 20” threaded rh t1x he was kinda embarrassed to pull a synthetic gun out at shooting match, I went over to his bench and put 5 rounds of lapua center X in one hole! He has weaver 36x on it and changed trigger spring! I absolutely love everything about it except not being able to see inside the action while on the bench

Finally got mine out the other day

Killer that’s sweet! Paint details?

20 inch barrel. All they had in stock. I have always been taught longer barrel equals better accuracy....have read a few places that may not be so with the Tikka due to harmonics? This one is plenty accurate so far!

I put it in a ctr stock, and added the wider forearm

used krylon fusion, striped it will sand, olive, and black, wish I used khaki instead of sand but whatever, wish I kept more olive on it too but oh well...

it looks better in hand

Textured it with krylon marbelizing spray.

Is the trigger adjustable in the Tikka?

Yes, it is.

Take the stock off and there is an adjustment screw right in front of the trigger. If you remove that and get a lighter spring it can be adjusted to under 1lb....all professionally done by your gunsmith of course, for safety.
