The Tikka UPR rimfire rifle is a fantastic rifle offering great accuracy, a smooth action and nil issues with the magazine. The only thing that I would love to see as standard is the tactical bolt knob like the centrefire UPR rifle.
Love my Tikka T1x 22lr topped it with a Zeiss 4-16x44 conquest v4 at 50 yards with 14 different target and match loads it averages .488 . I compete in 100 yard benchrest matches and Lapua midas plus is my go to ammo for that. Thanks for a great video. That's definitely my next purchase.
@@robertsalyers1351 I love my 243 it is a really beautiful rifle. But being a stainless varmint it's very heavy to go hunting on foot with. But it's a good cartridge for hunting pests and long range targets.I have my lowest scope stop zeroed at 300 for long range targets and it instantly took out a wild dog and a fox out at those distances I'm yet to shoot any other animals to know how it works.
I've just purchased a Tikka t1x mtr 22lr and I've only shot 40 gr bullets through it. It likes the cci standard velocity and the Aguila super extra It doesn't like the Winchester 1300 fps bullets. The Aguila shot the best group of the 3 and it's only $4.50 per box of 50. So, I like it too
The UPR stocks are the same across the rimfire and centrefire. I've got a T3x UPR and have a regular T1x MTR to switch into the stock for .22 PRS matches.
Great review Ozzie. Yes the first question I asked myself when the original T1X arrived was why didn't they chamber one in 22 Magnum also? That is super accurate rimfire accuracy. Many thanks for sharing!
Nice. I've got a T1x in ab MDT Oryx chassis. Performs similar to your loaner with CCI SV, SK and Eley. Mine also loves Norma Tac-22, which is priced similar to SK. Seems to like 40gr best.
Varies a bit about $900 for the. 22 and $700 for the centrefire. It's the same stock. It's a mix of carbon fibre and fibreglass, much stiffer than a regular stock, which is what you want for competition.
good review thanks. so this is just the t1x barreled action in a better chassis than the crappy plastic one it comes with? can't see spending triple the money. be better off buying the regular t1x and throwing it in a krg or something and saving a little money.
I would have to agree...I've just purchased a Tikka t1x mtr 22lr and topped it off with a 2x7x33 Leupold Scope...I'm very impressed with the quality and accuracy of this 22lr
22lr is cheap and plentiful and more than adequate out to 100-125m with a good setup on small game. 22 Magnum has been pretty much replaced by the 17HMR as it's more accurate and flatter shooting. Loaded with the 20 grain hollow points they have similar stopping power to a 22 Magnum at extended ranges due to bullet BC efficiencies. If you're buying a 22 Magnum or 17 HMR for bigger game like goats etc just get a 223 as the ammo is similar in price and gives you far greater performance and the ability to shoot the odd deer should the opportunity arise.
Try it out to 100m like a real Aussie, mate :) Don't worry about pandering to subscriber numbers, we don't have access to the firearms necessary to have a big gun channel in Aus.
Hmmmm, I needed a roll of toilet paper to list the faults I found in my T1x MTR when I received it. I ended up with a half decent rifle, but I had to put a bunch of effort into it to make it what it is. What gets me is how come no one else notices these glaring faults and report them. I guess, maybe in this modern age the ability to recognize quality has been lost. One thing is for sure - manufacturers have no need to lift their game when whatever rubbish they produce is accepted without question.
