NEW - Tikka Roughtech SuperLite - 5.8 lbs - NEW

[Andouille]

The adapter it comes with seems completely fine, but I bought a titanium M15x1 HUB mount for my can to shorten it by ~5/8" and drop a little weight...just a little simpler than having the extra adapter in there.

Can you point me to the adapter? I've only seen one in Ti, but it was $140ish, almost the same cost as cut and thread to 1/2-28!

On Gun Broker: C&S Armory Titanium M15x1 Bravo Direct Thread Adapter 1-3/8 x 24.
I messaged them to ensure I could get the extra light cut, cerakoted black. Part was $125.
I am in Western WA and I couldn't get a thread quote for less than $250 and many weeks out. Shipping the rifle out of state isn't exactly cheap either, so this was worth it to me.

He will make any adapter y'all want, seems like a good dude getting started. We went back and forth a lot in email when he made my m15 and I plan to send him some other projects. I believe he's in Colorado Springs iirc.

FYI this is the adapter that comes with the Superlight Roughtech I got.

I just called EuroOptic and their sales guy was less than helpful.

I’m looking for some advice and here is the goal:

Tikka 6.5 Creedmoor, stainless steel or cerakoted with stainless under, fluted barrel and fluted bolt and I will be using a suppressor. I bought a tikka t3x compact stock so my son can use it, so it has to be able to fit into that (which I’m told it will). I also have a SRS tikka rail for it

This seems to fit the bill but I’ll have to use the adapter, which I don’t know if I’m a fan of or not.

This is a nice option but is the heavier barrel profile (I think) therefore a little heavier. Would there be an issue with balance if putting it into a compact stock?

This is the 3rd option but is 22” and the heavier barrel profile (I think). I guess I could eventually cut it down to 20” but same question - with it being longer and heavier barrel, any potential issues with balance in a compact stock?

4th option - the tried and true, no bells or whistles but threaded and stainless.

Or so I just put myself out of my misery and get a bergara b-14 stoke for the kiddo and call it good?
