ID Part Price
P013 Tikka T3x UPR stock (needs T1x-compatible guard) $599.99
P018 PSE CTR/UPR bottom metal for T1x (if the inlet requires it) $150 (if needed)
P070 Tikka T3x vertical pistol grip S54067116 (for Lite/MTR stock) $29
P019 TriggerTech Special (match the T3x trigger) $224.99
Total (UPR path, with grip, without PSE) ~$854

Lower-cost path: - T3x Lite stock P012 ($99.99 sale) + P070 grip + P019 trigger = ~$354

Premium path: - Tikka Ace chassis P014 ($950-999.99; fits all T3/T3x/T1x per Sako, rimfire magwell required) + P019 = ~$1,175-1,225

Why: - Tikka officially confirms the T1x fits T3x Lite/UPR stocks and the Ace chassis. - The T1x uses the same trigger as the T3x, so the owner can run identical triggers and grips on both rifles. - Note: P013 and P014 are med confidence on price/fitment details. Verify the UPR inlet and guard combination before recommending.

Every part referenced in this build (including swaps/alternates). Confidence reflects how well fitment/price was verified.

Before you buy

All part IDs refer to parts.csv. Prices are the USD list/street prices recorded on 2026-10-08 and exclude the rifle, optics, ammo, tax and shipping. Rifle reference prices (variants.csv): MTR MSRP $649 (SI, Oct 2024), Hunter ~$799, UPR ~$1,319, Ace Target $1,549 (16 in) / $1,799 (20 in).

Common rules for every build: - Use T1x-specific rails. T3x rails don't fit (EGW: 2.508 in vs 3.245 in hole spread), and rails are handed. - Torque per the manual or the chassis maker. The T1x manual says 7 Nm (62 in-lb) with a metal guard. - Confirm thread pitch: US 1/2-28, UK/AU 1/2-20. - Trigger springs/triggers set below 2.5 lb go below Tikka's stated minimum, so label those builds competition-only and recommend gunsmith installation.
