Rail for Tikka?

Murphy Precision rail and Seekin Rings. View attachment 692481

I have one of those also. They are perfectly machined and attach with both lugs and all of the screws for the T3X. I bought some bedding compound but didn’t use it. The stainless matches so well, looks like it is part of the receiver. I used Talley ultra- light rings on a 34mm tube with a 500mm bell…no cheek riser required! Murphy all the way! I believe they come in titanium also. I have a 20 MOA.

Which one would allow using the sights on a Battue?

Check out the Area 419 rail for Tikkas. It is probably the most low profile rail i've seen, doesn't overhang the front of the action, and utilizes the recoil lugs in the top of the action.

Do you have a photo of one installed? Website shows it as 8 inches long but that doesn't make sense.

Mountain Tactical Rail, has integrated recoil pin in it as well. Have them on both my Tikkas. There are different variations of this one, but I deiced to get the receiver length because I went with a 56mm Schmidt Bender for my Low light setup and the extension would have hit my scope.

Thread update - I finally have a Mountain Tactical and Area 419 Tikka rail side-by-side. Just like their rings/bases, the Mountain Tactical just seems less refined - the edges on the Pic rail are sharper, and it just has a slightly clunky look and feel about it. The Area 419 is far more rounded off where it needs to be, but looks as if it is also 'cleaner' in design and execution.

On its own, the Mountain Tactical looks 'okay', but not much different to generic stuff one sees on gun shop racks. Next to the Area 419, it seems sloppy and rough. I have no idea if the tolerances are any different, or if one would actually notice anything in practice at all ... but on the basis of looks, finish, and attention to detail, the Area 419 is far ahead.

This might be mostly irrelevant, now that we have the UM rings: https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/um-tikka-scope-rings.310275/ ... within the distances that most are hunting, with a modern scope, a 20 MOA rail is not necessarily needed ...

Hey can you tell me the length of the 419? On their site it shows 8 inches but a tikka action is like 6.25 inches long. Thanks. Photos would be awesome.

I used a factory ctr 0 moa that’s bonded and pined.I trimmed the front part of it off for some extra clearance.
