Tikka T3 T1X Jrt1X409 Bolt 17Hmr Lh 20

The Tikka T3 T1X chambered in 17 HMR with left-hand bolt operation is a compact, lightweight rimfire rifle built for precision shooting and small-game hunting. At just 6.5 lbs with a 20-inch barrel, it's nimble enough for field work yet accurate enough for the range. The T1X action has earned a reputation for reliability and tight tolerances, making this left-hand configuration a solid choice for southpaw shooters who often struggle to find purpose-built options.

The 17 HMR cartridge delivers flat trajectory, minimal recoil, and effective range for varmints and small game out to moderate distances. Its high velocity and aerodynamic bullet design make it a favorite among precision rimfire enthusiasts. The single-stage trigger, user-changeable grip, and 1/2x28 UNEF muzzle threading give you the flexibility to tune the rifle to your preferences and add a suppressor or muzzle device if needed.

This rifle feeds from a 10+1 magazine and features a synthetic stock in black with black steel furniture—no-fuss materials that handle field conditions without requiring babying. At 33.7 inches overall, it's compact and easy to maneuver in brush or from a vehicle. The 1:9 twist rate is optimized for 17 HMR ballistics, ensuring stable flight and consistent accuracy downrange.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this rifle set up for left-handed shooters?

Yes. The bolt operates from the left side, making it ideal if you shoot left-handed. Finding quality purpose-built left-hand rifles can be difficult, so this is a solid option if you've been hunting for (pun intended) a southpaw setup.

Can I add a suppressor or other muzzle device?

Yes. The muzzle is threaded 1/2x28 UNEF, which is the standard for 17 HMR and many .22 LR suppressors and muzzle devices. This opens up options for quieter shooting or custom muzzle work.

What is 17 HMR good for?

The 17 HMR is a high-velocity rimfire round effective for varmint control and small-game hunting. It delivers a flatter trajectory and more energy than .22 LR out to moderate range, with minimal recoil and noise—great for hunting where precision and follow-up shots matter.

Is the grip removable or changeable?

Yes, the rifle features a user-changeable grip, allowing you to swap it for a different style or fit to suit your hand or shooting preference.
