Scoping Tikka T1X #16963460 02/15/22

Now I am thinking about scoping it. Use would be shooting suppressed via DeadAir Mask 22, and mostly inside 100yd, but may try to ring steel at 150yd or so, and potentially stretch it more, for funsies. I have an orphan 10x MQ, but I wonder if it may too much for sniping birds/pests. CZ452 has a 6x MQ, and if I rail the Tikka I could swap scopes, but wouldn't allow friendly competition between the kids. Burris Fullfiled 3-9? Try to score a 6x MQ ? Run the 10x and change to 6x for hunting? Recommended Rings and Bases DIP 0 MOA rail or keep low and just plain rings to dovetail? Thanks

Everything below zero on the erector,is 100% fhuqking USELESS. Hint...................... Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

For the kids I know getting behind the 6x is easier, but it would require a new acquisition. Stick, even though I understand the waste of mil below zero, 75MOA is too generous for my Texan needs in thick piney forest. DIP seems put of stock for the 20 and 30MOA ones. rings? Warne lows?

Thought DIP was only maker of rimfire rails, got me one of them on CZ452 with 6MQ.

Hint. Bob makes great stuff and every one of my Anschutzeses,use his rail. Also a good way to scope a CZ,as you mention. Hint. Ring spacing is a scope's BEST friend and don't be erector spooked. NOTHING is as fhuqking fun as Long Range Rimfire Pursuits and you'll be dreaming up new ways,to accomplish same. Hint..................

The HMR has a 10x and the 22 wears a 16x.. I know the 16’s are a compromise but I’ve got a gaggle of them on a variety of accurate .22’s and I just can’t cuss em for the money… The tikka 22 shoots well and with more effort on my end I know it can do better. The 17 shoots scary good and as soon as I find a sucker it’s gonna win me some pink slips. Unfortunately CCI 20 gr gamepoints is what it likes instead of the hornady 17 gr vmax which is what I’m stocked up on She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...? She's gone shootin..
