Already broke my New Years resolution to not buy any firearms this year and I know I need to weed a few out and send a couple down the road that I haven't shot for several years.
Then the new Tikka T1X hit the street and the talk is that it is everything its big brother the T3 is. The biggest complaint I hear is the fin on the bottom of the 10 round magazine and the desire for a flush fitting 4 or 5 round magazine option. Well, I held out until the initial supply ran out and I felt I was safe. Then they suddenly became available again and I succumbed to the call of the sirens and ordered one on line.
It is scheduled to be delivered to the FFL tomorrow. And I am actually thinking I might forgo the smallbore silhouette matches just so I can take the little guy to the range and do some ammo testing, though from what I have heard, the T1X shoots everything pretty darn good. Now I need to sort through the scopes I have that are collecting dust and see if there is something appropriate to mount on the new Tikka....
