I bought one of the first T1x in 22 LR when they first became available. I liked it so well I decided I also had to have one in 17 HMR. I discovered none were available anywhere in the country. I got on Eurooptics wait list. After several weeks I got e-mail from them that my model was available. I ordered online immediately and they got my rifle shipped out same day. The rifle was at my transfer FFL in 3 days; excellent service. I cleaned the rifle good, adjusted trigger to 2 inch lbs pull weight, mounted scope and headed to range with a half dozen different types of ammo to test. In summary the rifle performed flawlessly and accuracy was very good with all ammo. I shot best group from mine with CCI 20 grain Gamepoint. I absolutely love this rifle. I have found it to be superior in performance to 3 very high end rim fires I own that cost 3 times as much. Wont state make in this review. Improvements I would like to see: a wood stock pillar bedded version with a 4 to 5 shot magazine that fits flush with bottom of stock. I would buy such a configuration in a heartbeat if available. The only negative thought i have about this rifle is the funky look of the magazine protruding below the stock. I’m obviously a traditionalist and I personally like a rifle with very classic lines. Don’t think I’m alone here. i have seen several serious shooters look at this rifle and cull because of this magazine protrusion. I’m just glad I had chance to shoot before I made same mistake. It has become my favorite rim fire rifle.
