That stock looks great Lee. I have a B&C stock that i considered for a moment but for the time being the factory stock will do.
I shot the T1x again in some better conditions with RWS Target and RWS Riffle Match and SK Match. Hard to split either at 50 meters but what is clear is that the T1x is the real deal. It shoots like a BR rifle limited by scope and shooter ability. Its ability to maintain the same POI with any target ammo is what sets it apart for me. My P94S shoots very well, but the Tikka is way less finicky in the way it prints all breeds over the top of each other.

Thanks for that. Was tossing up between a second hand P94S or the Tikka. Problem solved.

Well I was looking at rimfire central in the USA and a guy finally removed his T1X barrel over there,so I am posting his pics for you guys to see. Thanks to
Emietenkorte in the USA, I bet it won't be long before we see Lilja and other aftermarket barrels for sale

Since I got the Bell and Carlson M40 Varmint stock for mine the extra weight is just right for 22 PRS comps and as has been said above it's not that ammo selective.Now just waiting for the extra magazines in 22LR to arrive in late february .

Buy a comfy chair and a house brick, every Saturday arvo sit in the chair having a nice time and about every 20-30 minutes smack yourself in the head with the brick ... or go shoot rimfires for accuracy ... the result is the same a nice afternoon with intermittent headaches.

As most would know it’s not the winning or losing I’m interested in. I just want to shoot more.

And I never win but I know there is zero chance at being competitive when they shoot rimfire. So I don’t go. But having more range time with your mates is a win in itself
