    BTW I really like your rig! I've had almost the exact thing in mind for a while. I'd only chop a few inches off the front end (down to 16") and add a suppressor.
    You can chop em to about 12-14" without losing accuracy. The "fully supressed" ones from factory are just that.

    This is 780mm without supressor I think.

    As far as looks go, I preferred it with the BX15. More practical too. Has anyone ever heard any reason why they banned 15rd 22 mags? Pure incompetence is my assumption, but was there actually a reason? Picture from days gone by.

    Agreed, I reckon a TX1 in .17hmr would be quite good. Would love to hear more about them.

    Marlin 917 in 17 HMR , accurate workhorse that runs better dirty than clean and isn't to heavy to carry to a spot and start carnage.
    Unique , french semi auto, amazing little rifle, very very reliable ( 700 - 800 rounds before a jam ) and accurate.
    Ruger 10 /22 , tweeted by Gundoc and despite my cynicism turned out to be a tack driver and a great tool capable of a high work rate.

    I have had a lot of other stuff over the years but after many many rifles for rabbits I have distilled down to these three.

    There are plenty of complimentary reviews online.
    I replaced a CZ455 with the T1x, mainly because I wanted my .22 to have the same ergonomics as my t3. The ability to share parts between the t1x and the t3 is handy.
    As for how it shoots - easily on par with the CZ, and I'm sure it will get better when it's broken in. Currently sub MOA with CCI subs.
    The finish is better than the CZ, the magazines are much nicer, the trigger is better, especially when replaced with a 2 stage timney, and my Stug T3 stock fits perfectly.
    So far it's ticking a lot of boxes for me.

    And the CZ 452. This thing has also got it fair share of bunnies but TBH it really excels knocking off maggies and plovers

    Totally agree ,
    I bought mine because of the Familiarity aspect of my T3 , and the aftermarket availability of bits and pieces for the Tikka platform.
    Accuracy is first class with standard velocity target ammunition , haven’t tried high velocity hunting ammo .
    Feeds , functions beautifully, and the trigger is the same as the T3 , totally adjustable, but it does benefit from fitting a lighter spring .

    That Stirling .22 has put pay to countless hares I shudder to think what you could do with a .17 and some better glass
