The Tikka T1X Ace Target (Tikka part no. JRT1XATB30916) is a bolt-action rifle chambered in .17 HMR and built on the same modular chassis as the T3x Ace Target, letting competitors practice on the T1X and step up to centerfire competition without relearning a new platform. A 16-inch black anodized barrel is threaded for a suppressor and cut with a 1-in-9-inch twist, and Tikka’s crossover barrel design adds accuracy without the added weight of a full bull barrel. A 45-degree bolt opening speeds up cycling between shots, while the aluminum stock adjusts for a personalized fit and the ARCA/M-LOK handguard accepts a wide range of competition rail and bipod accessories. It feeds from a 10-round magazine, giving rimfire competitors and trainers plenty of rounds between reloads.
