Range report for T1X

[MarkS]

Took my new T1X today, for the first time. Groups were shot at 50 yds. I posted the small group and the Agg. for 4 groups. It was windy, up to 15 mph at times. I had many groups, with 4 in one hole and 1 out. My total agg. for 24 groups was 0.3842". CCI SV ran 0.400" , SK Std+ ran 0.450", Eley Club ran 0.456". I am very pleased with my results today. I think it would do much better in less windy conditions.

This was shot at 150 yds. Wolf Target is at 7 O'clock, 0.75" for 5 shots. SK Std+ at 2 O'clock ran 1.25"

I cut some match sticks, and split some playing cards, at 50 yds. I cut the Ace with the first shot. The other took 5 shot to cut. I did mark it on the third round.

Mark,

Damn, that's some great shooting!! Nicely done. I need one of these rifles. Looks like Tikka has another winner on it's hands.

Looks like it was worth the wait. I will have to put one on my list. I just bought a 457 in 22 mag and want one in a MTR. by then maybe you can pick up a Tikka at the LGS.
Nice shooting Mark.

I always wondered if you got the strike on anything matches if you nicked them at 25 yards you could lite them ? I was always going to try it.

WOW....Great shooting and looks like a very accurate rifle too! Thanks for letting us see your results.
Looks like I am going to have to have one myself now....dang-it

Those are very nice groups. What optic were you using?
It would be great to see similar reports from the CZ 457, only because I don’t care for the synthetic stock on the Tikka, and would prefer a sporter weight barrel for plinking/small game.

I pulled a Nightforce BR in 8x32, off on of my centerfire, for now. I have 2 CZ 455 Varmints, I like the wood also. I may upgrade to a Boyd Pro Varmint later.
