I will later on. Currently I am watching the Rock Island Auction. I got skin in the game and want to see where it sheds.Can you guys post a photo up through the mag well ?
You all are on to something with this Tikka. I just picked one up 3 days ago, ordered a dip 25 moa rail that came in like a day, and hit my range yesterday. Man, it's a sweet shooting rifle. From the variety of match ammo, I'm getting great results at .5" or under. Even Blazer is shooting well.
I can't wait to put it in a KRG Bravo or Oryx chassis. I can run the same inlet as the T3 or T3x right? I see they specifically make a T1X inlet..?

You are correct, I been saying saying this for 6 months.
I based buying my T1x on the availability of the Bravo. Once the Bravo came in stock and I ordered it, I then began to order everything else, including the rifle. I got lucky and built it in just over 1 week. Moving from the Ares BTR 2.5-15 into the BTR 4.5-27. Would like to see more at distance and the floating dot floats my boat.
Anyone looking for a 2.5-15? ?
I signed up this morning for my first precision .22 rimfire match.
In Boulder, CO of all places. ?

New Night Stalker photos. This is how it sits now. The monopod is pretty effective for either bench or prone shooting. I have a few extra rails so I decided to put one on the lower forearm section. I then installed some left over LaRue rail covers I had. Works out pretty good. It's there if needed, if not it's not hurting anything. Items that wasn't being used are at least on a rifle now. The KRG supplied rail worked perfect for the monopod.
What are you using for the mag holder on the side?
poke_53, can you describe in more detail how the malfunctions oddur?
Sure thing. Every one of them, the nose of the round tipped up and tried to feed above the chamber. It would be mid mag as well and not just the first or last round.
How did you place in the competition?Yeah some of my mags have looked like the one on the far right. I need to get back to the range to verify which ones are the issue.
Good thing didn’t hinder my score as I was shooting against a few 455’s and 3 Vudoo’s
I placed 1st with 455 point and second place was a Vudoo with 445 points which is one of my good buddies. The match director asked my buddy if he was pissed that be got beat by a $450 rifle. ?
Just blasting and cerakoting everything now, heaps of parts though. Aiming for Sunday finish, will see how I go.
Nothing better than beating a bunch of voodoos with the tikka!I placed 1st with 455 point and second place was a Vudoo with 445 points which is one of my good buddies. The match director asked my buddy if he was pissed that be got beat by a $450 rifle. ?
@littlepod
The only thing I will change on my rig is adding the Sterk handle once I get it. I’ve got mine torqued into the Bravo per KRG spec which is 65 in lbs I believe.
I’m shooting SK Standard and luckily this rifle likes the same lot number I already have for my 455. This rifle shoots this lot better than my 455 does.
I did add a lighter trigger spring to get the weight down some. It’s a very crisp 1lb or so. Not sure exactly what the weight is though.
I keep hearing safety concerns about having a trigger @ 1lb? Is there some sort of safety issues I should watch out for?
Same as mentioned above. Be safe with it and do all you can to trigger a slam fire, bang your rifle around and so forth to try to get it to go bang when not expecting it to. I did this several times until I got it adjusted to where it is safe.I keep hearing safety concerns about having a trigger @ 1lb? Is there some sort of safety issues I should watch out for? It looks like I can pick up 2 yodave springs for my T3X and the T1X.
Was it hard getting the trigger screw out? Someone said it might be loctited and took quite a bit? What torque did you re-install it at?
Thanks for the help!
Good luck littlepod, we will be pulling for you.
With a too light trigger the round can go off when closing the bolt. I had that happen to me early on. I ran the screw in a 1/4 turn and fixed it.
Yes!!!!I wish someone would make an after market ejection spring ! ?
Damn, wish I would've seen this earlier today. That $9 shipping charge from yodave is a little bit extreme.Just found https://elayprecision.com/ and it's $10 shipped, so I picked one up. $19 for yodave spring, I figure springs are springs hopefully. ElayPrecision looks to be based in WA.
