Kinetic Research Group T1x Bravo Chassis Review

[@maxsterling241]

Love this Sako Green, it's especially perfect for Tikka. Tikka + KRG = TRG.

[@darkspectro100]

ODG lovely.!Blends in when hunting and it doesn't heats up in the sun as much as black.

[@backpackingireland8624]

Have this very same stock on order in same Sako green, can't wait to see how it performs. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪👌

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Great review John, thanks!

[@magnanimus9692]

Any chance you can do a review of the oryx chassis? (and maybe a separate comparion video comparing the the oryx to the bravo)?

[@neilbeeson1406]

I've got one and LOVE IT

[@simonschulz415]

Would have been nice to get some range time to see if it’s worth the investment rather than just marketing blurb

[@viking9934]

Any difference in accuracy after you dropped it in?

[@ogdens123]

Pretty keen to know this as well, I'm close to pulling the trigger on one of these for my Tikka

[@quikcolin]

I’d love to know as well

[@8541tactical]

No noticeable difference. This rifle shot very well stock.

[@ogdens123]

@@8541tactical thanks for the reply John

[@shura0107]

Tikka guarantees sub-MOA for a 3 shot group at 50 meters for the T1x, so the stock should not change anything in accuracy. Still, it's a nice stock and I want one for my Tikka.

[@LowSparkChris]

Curious...what barrel length is your Tikka? 16" or 20"?

[@iainmoffatt2381]

I've done something very similar using the MDT Oryx chassis. Same story, I thought that being made for a T3 it would drop right in, but some machining in the region of the magazine well was required. Boy does that thing shoot tight now :)

[@averageoutdoorsmannz2015]

Did that inhibit the oryx chasis from being put back on a t3x?

[@nismo8319]

I have had one of these bravo chassis for my 10/22 and I liked it but, it had its downfalls as well. Like for instance, LOP is way too short for any adult. I get it, they had to make it cheaper for the 10/22 crowd. I decided to spend the money on one of these for my Tikka T1x. They no longer come with an aluminum trigger guard. (Got mine June 2022) It is plastic. Cost the same but, you are getting less quality. I have not been impressed with KRG. I really wanted an MDT but, didn't want to spend twice as much. I guess when there is nothing else on the market in its price point you can make quality cuts because customers don't have another option. Grs has a nice stock for the T1x that is about $150 more. If I had the chance to have both in my hands to compare, I probably would have gone with the Grs. I hate bashing an American made product but, when you make cuts to line your pockets and stop caring about your customers, it happens. I had an issue with my first KRG purchase, the 10/22 chassis, and customer service wasn't that great, they charge more for shipping than their distributors do so you can get it for less elsewhere. While I am being kind of had on KRG, I like both my chassis systems. I just don't believe the quality is reflective of the price.

[@jeffreyleese9638]

How would this chassis work for off hand paper target shooting at 30 yards? Is the gun well balanced?

[@SuperJeanq]

Would love to buy one. Not yet available in Australia. Anyone have a link to buy online? TIA

[@dougallen7890]

Have a CZ453 SST. Have tried many 22 ammo some good some not as far as consistency. What ammo serves you best for your matches?

[@8541tactical]

Wolf Match Target and Norma Match 22 has worked well for me.

[@alexbrooks8012]

Can you let me know what your torque specs are on the TX1/KRG? Thanks

[@isaidme0]

Do you have full adjustment of the cheek riser with the bolt all the way back? I’ve read somewhere it’s a problem

[@Roddy556]

Little bit late for a reply but on the centerfire T3 the Bravo has two cheekpieces and one of them has a notch cut in it to allow the bolt to come further back. That said when I had the wrong cheekpiece on I was still able to run the gun (in 6.5CM) without cycling the bolt all the way back.

[@afkirby]

How’s that trigger?

[@Dustysa4]

Have you found a good ballistic calculator for 22lr?

[@Syxtus_outdoors]

Using Strelok Pro for 22LR drop here, works very well.

[@muratmustafa4532]

Does a barrelled T3 action fit into this version?

[@8541tactical]

No. This is a T1x only version. There is no magazine release (since that is part of the T1x action)

[@Stev777]

Will the T1X also fit into a MDT ACC?

[@8541tactical]

Yes. We have one on deck and have already test fitted it.

[@Stev777]

Are there problems with the Mag? Do you also make a review of this installation?

[@murder0ne]

What trigger are you running? SOTIC?

[@8541tactical]

KRG Midas...but yes, same as the SOTIC Rifle.

[@jeffsmith350]

Will it take tikka ctr mags?

[@8541tactical]

No. This chassis is for the T1x. The version for the centerfire takes AICS mags.

[@buddy9577]

YOU SHOULDA SHOWED HOW TO INSTALL IT

[@8541tactical]

It is two screws. I have faith that my viewers didn’t need to see how to tighten two screws.

[@atiradorfclass]

Does the KRG chassis improved the precision of the rifle? Or kept the same?

[@8541tactical]

Same

[@TexasCorgiGun]

My trigger guard it's not aluminum
