Tikka T1X 22Lr 20 Lh 10Rd

The Tikka T1X 22 LR left-hand rifle is a purpose-built rimfire designed for shooters who need a serious small-bore platform without compromise. Whether you're training for precision rifle fundamentals, running drills at the range, or teaching new shooters the basics of marksmanship, this left-handed .22 LR delivers the accuracy and handling you'd expect from a Tikka—in a caliber that won't punish your wallet or your shoulder. At 6.2 lbs with a 20-inch barrel, it's light enough to carry all day and compact enough to shoot comfortably from a bench or prone position.

Left-hand shooters often feel like an afterthought in the firearms industry, so Tikka's commitment to offering this rifle in a true southpaw configuration is genuinely appreciated. The single-stage trigger is crisp and predictable—ideal for precision work. The synthetic stock handles field conditions without worry, and the 1/2x28 UNEF muzzle thread gives you flexibility to add a suppressor, moderator, or flash hider if you want to tame what little recoil this caliber produces. With a 10-round magazine capacity plus one in the chamber, you've got enough rounds downrange before reloading to work on sight pictures and trigger control in meaningful strings of fire.

The 1:16.5 rate of twist handles standard and high-velocity .22 LR ammunition reliably. At 37.8 inches overall, the T1X is compact and maneuverable without feeling cramped, making it equally at home in a truck rack, a range bag, or slung over your shoulder. This is a no-nonsense rimfire for serious shooters—not a tacticool fantasy gun, but a tool that works.
