palo Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Could someone tell me the height of the tikka picatinny rail that comes on the ctr and supervarmint models. I have a new ctr on order and I would like to get rings sorted before it arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTO Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Mine looks to be 16mm from the centre line of the bore to the top of the rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite familiar with the tikka action but I would like to know the actual height of the rail on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackburnbuccaneer Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Just measured one that is off the rifle, it is 6.5mm from the base to the flats on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTO Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Thanks. I'm quite familiar with the tikka action but I would like to know the actual height of the rail on its own. I've got a T3 Supervarmint with a Picatinny rail fitted, and a T3X Supervarmint with the integral Picatinny rail. The height, which is what you asked for, is the same on both, although 'depth/thickness' of the rail on the T3 is more because it grips the dovetails on the action. The T3X Supervarmint does not have the dovetails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a flat base rail that is screwed onto the receiver ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejg223 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Flat rail screwed and pinned on as I could see. Mine (CTR stainless is about 6.4mm) With scope on it is difficult to measure and could well be the 6.5 that - measured. btw, just unpacked a new Third Eye Tikka rail. I was annoyed about the high price of 90 Euro and now disgusted that they don't even have screws with the rail, how is any one supposed to fit the rail??? Never again a product from this company. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markymark Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Btw I have an unused rail from my tikka T3 CTR which I took off to fit a 20MOA rail once I had it. Comes unused, with screws and pins. Should anyone be interested in it then please send me a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
