Gandy Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Does the magazine sit in the pistol grip of the stock see 45 secs into the film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palo Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 It looks good. It has the same action footprint as the t3 so you can fit aftermarket t3 stocks that use the t3 trigger guard. Fieldsports britain have a short video on you tube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Interchangeability of the stock with the T3 centrefires is a great idea (and a huge design and tooling cost saving for Tikka) It looks like they are using optilocks which makes mounting a scope significantly more expensive than having a standard 11mm dovetail rail Cheers Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moorlander Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Looks good , stick a picatinny rail on it and it`ll be perfect, saying that the CZ`s take some beating and cost very little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rail is 11mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im intersted as well but I will wait a while to see how they perform first before I consider buying one. I hope they have a better extractor system than the sako quad.

As you say, what's a Tikka .22LR going to do that a CZ or other half decent brand cant - at a discount? The limitation with a .22LR is always going to be the ammo. Having said that I'm sure they wont be able to build them quick enough. I'd probably buy one if I had a spare .22 slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejg223 Posted January 25, 2018 Report Share Posted January 25, 2018 Great, all aftermarket T3 stocks with standard floor plate will fit. I think that is a very smart move. I have met Miikka a few times and he seems to be strongly behind the idea to keep all parts interchangeable. See T3 vs T3x edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 The 20" barrel version in a GRS Berserk stock kind of appeals to me. Cheers Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will hopefully see him at the IWA. Especially competition shooters from northern countries seem to like training with 22's in the same stock as their comp rifles. One of our customers has 6 identical stocks from air rifle right up to 300wm. I have a few CZ 22's lying around but dreaded the work of making a stock for one. This would be the job to test stocks in the garden or to practice trigger skills etc. Just plop a T1X into the tac rig. edi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not so sure about that. I have an old BSA Martini manufactured decades ago which has had God knows how many rounds through it. It is easily the most accurate .22lr rifle I have ever shot at 50 metres. 9 out 10 rounds hitting a 0.2" v-bull and the 10th damn close. On 3 sec snap exposures ( Mini-McQueen ) Not sure if its due to the heavy barrel, the falling block design, the overall weight or the superb trigger .....or even all four ! But I am convinced that not all rifles in .22lr are limited by the ammunition ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
