My family and I do a lot of competitive shooting ... Mainly 3gun right now. We are looking to get into the local 22 PRS style matches for next year (so I have plenty of time to dial things in).
After much research and debate, I ordered a T1x from Whittaker's the other day and am now looking into the rest of the items we will need. The other option was the Ruger Precision fwiw ...
So I have the gun coming, 2 more mags, and the vertical grip. I might grab that beavertail forearm too but this is all a temporary situation until I decide on a better option. Leaning towards that Oryx once it's available.
For glass, Im pretty set on a PST Gen2 3-15 as I think that may be a better choice than the 5-25 especially with closer targets. Love to hear your thoughts on that ...
Now to mount it. Do I need a 20+ moa mounting option which forces me into an add on pic rail? If so, Contessa, DIP, EGW - any real differences or why I should seriously consider one over the other?
Then if I need to get pic rail rings or 11mm(?) Rings for the factory dovetail, can you point me towards some decent options. Don't need quick disconnect or anything like that. I have next to no experience with rings as all we have ever used are 1 piece cantilever mounts!
Then of course I'll mess with the small parts - possibly a trigger spring or even the Timney, new bolt handles when they are available ...
And here is another question since this would also be our first bolt gun (except for the mosins but that's a little different) ... I'm seeing that there is a lightweight bolt shroud coming. What is the benefit to such a part?
Thanks!
