T1x and the higher velocity ammo

It seems the T1x's shoot about any of the standard velocity or match ammo quite well.
That makes me wonder how they do w/ the higher velocity stuff, such as CCI Mini-Mag and others in that velocity range.
 
I've always heard that sub-sonics are more accurate. Rounds that are above speed of sound become unstable as they transition from super- sonic to sub-sonic. If you stay at a distance that the bullet stays supersonic, they may work well for you. Give it a shot!
 
Would lay odds that a good lot of fed automatch will shoot
It’s been extremely windy here so I haven’t made it out but I will this week. I’ll report when I do. Just sighting it in showed promise. Ill be shooting more hunting ammo than target, federal game shok, Winchester Super X, CCI and the like... I installed a 2.5-10x56 trijicon, I may installed something with a little more power for 100 groups though.

Nakneker, I have favored a minimum of 20x for that reason, and prefer 24 or more shooting paper

Yeah, I thinking I should switch out. I’ll probably leave it for round one. I have a Ruger precision 22 also I’m taking a,I gotta with a Leupold LRP 14x.

Should be fun but I can myself swapping out for the next session.
 
I shot some 5 shot groups yesterday. Winchester Super x HP, Stinger HP, CCI Mini Mag HP, federal Game shok HP. Most of my rifles don't group super tight with stingers so that was a surprise. I have cases of federal Game shok so that was nice to see too. I don't shoot competition so for my purposes the little Tikka shows some potential!IMG_6503.JPG

Thanks for the report, nakneker. That stinger was a bit of a surprise, for me also.
i would have had higher hopes for the Mini-Mag, but the Federal should fill the bill, nicely.

I'd like to see what the stinger does at 100 plus yards. That looks great!!. I need a scope rail for mine.
