    Had this for a while now, began life as a factory Sako 85 finnlight in 270wsm. It now sports a Ken Henderson carbon fibre stock and is running a 24" Proof Sendero carbon wrapped barrel and Terminator T3 brake, still chambered in 270wsm. I had my 3-15 VX5 on it but I have become quite fond of my little 2-10 VX5 so its wearing that now. Thanks to @Kiwi Greg for ordering all the parts and putting it all together for me and doing load development. Its pushing the 145 ELDX at 3300 into tiny little holes. I currently dont have access to my reloading gear as we are between houses so I ran some factory Norma 150gr Oryx through it the other day and it also shoots them excellent.

    Got an extra mag as well. I’ll chuck on my now spare Loopie VX2 3-9, will stick a DPT can on the end.

    The only issue is my 5 year old boy is too short for the stock, something my .22lr AR with its formerly A-Cat (not anymore!) AIL adjustable length stock was perfect for. But them's the breaks.

    Now Jacinda, hurry the f**k up and pay me my estimated $13,000 to $17,000 you owe me so I can repay my credit card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Nice, I just ordered a nice little Browning T-bolt for the same reasons...

    Is a tack driver with nearly every ammo I've sent down range.
    Tape is on the scope as my safe is a bit full.

    @dogmatix are you happy with it? Any issues? What sort of groups are you getting? With what ammo?

    Yep, I've lightened the trigger as per Standard Tikka/Sakos.
    Can't fault the rifle.
    Once I lose my AR's, it will now be part of an all Scandinavian gunsafe. (Tikka, Sakos and a Huskie)

    Only taken it to 50m so far, but the CCI Standard, Subsonic, Suppressor and Mini Mag were all 0.5" at that range.

    Haven't actually shot it that much, been too busy burning off ammo recently.

    Sounds awesome! Well, the 22 and the rest of the Scandinavian stuff not the whole loss of ARs...

    I love my T1x , it shoots most subsonic well , but SK Pistol Match , and Lapua Pistol King shoot into a tiny one hole groups at 50m .
    I never care if the ammo doesnt have a hollow point projectile because I always head shoot small critters anyway .
