MDT XRS CHASSIS SYSTEM | TIKKA T1X | FLAT DARK EARTH | 105524-FDE
Earth Tones. Match-Rifle Fit.
The MDT XRS is built for shooters who want the fit and feel of a traditional rifle stock with the adjustability of a modern precision chassis. A full-length 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum core runs the length of the stock under textured polymer panels, with an aluminum V-block bedding system, an adjustable cheek piece, spacer-adjustable length of pull and a 12″ M-LOK forend. This is the Tikka T1x rimfire inlet in Flat Dark Earth.
The T1x is one of the best rimfire actions you can buy for the money, and a lot of them sit in a factory stock that gives up all of that potential. The XRS fixes the fit: cheek height to get your eye behind the scope, length of pull set to you instead of the average of everybody, V-block bedding under the action, and a forend with somewhere to mount a bipod. It still shoulders like a rifle stock, so it works for a walk in the woods and a match day both. About 3.9 lbs depending on inlet. Use it for: NRL22, rimfire steel, .22 trainers, small game and squirrel rifles, and teaching new shooters on a stock that actually fits them.
Fit You Can Dial In.
Length of pull adjusts with spacers from 13.25″ to 15″+, so the same rifle can fit you in a t-shirt and in a winter coat, or fit a kid now and still fit them in three years. The quick-adjust cheek piece sets scope height without tools, which matters most when you're switching between prone and awkward positional shooting. The grip is a replaceable overmolded system, and MDT includes both an angled and a vertical grip in the box, so you can decide which one suits your shooting without buying anything extra.
A 12″ Forend to Build On.
The 12″ forend gives you room to work: somewhere to add weight, a bipod or a barricade stop, and enough length to put your support where the position needs it instead of where the stock allows. It also has an ambidextrous magazine latch, so left-handed shooters aren't working around the chassis.
Why Flat Dark Earth?
FDE is the quiet one. It doesn't flash in the sun the way black does on a bright range day, it hides dust and handling marks instead of showing every one, and it blends into dry grass, brush and fall woods. On a rimfire that rides in the truck and gets carried for squirrels as often as it gets shot off a bag, that's a practical finish and not just a color choice. It also matches cleanly if the rest of your kit is FDE or tan. Want the stealthier look? The same chassis comes in Black.
Our Take
We Machine Mini Weights Specifically for the XRS
A light rimfire rifle is a twitchy rimfire rifle. Our PPWM mini forend weights are made specifically for the MDT XRS, in a 6 oz 2-pack, so you can settle the rifle down without turning it into something you don't want to carry all afternoon. Want more weight than that out front? Our 12.3 oz exterior forend weights go heavier. Both made in the USA right here in Michigan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fitment, adjustment, mounting and building out your T1x.
Will it fit my rifle?
This is the Tikka T1x rimfire inlet. It is not a T3 or T3x chassis. If you're running a centerfire Tikka, you want the T3 / T3x XRS instead. See every XRS inlet we stock.
Does it come with both grips?
Yes. MDT includes both an angled grip and a vertical grip, and the grip system is replaceable. If you'd rather run something else, the MDT Elite pistol grip and our other rifle grips will bolt on.
How do I mount a bipod?
The cleanest answer is the XRS Enclosed Forend, which has integral ARCA along its full length, so an ARCA bipod like the Ckye-Pod Gen 3 Compact clamps anywhere with nothing else to buy. On the standard forend you add a rail section first.
Will it fit a bull barrel?
The XRS forend is built around heavier barrel profiles, but barrel channel clearance is worth confirming against your exact barrel before you order, especially on a rebarreled T1x. Reach out if you want us to check a specific contour for you.
XRS or Oryx for a T1x?
We only carry parts we trust, can stand behind and know are built with quality, so you're in good hands either way. The Oryx Sportsman is the simpler, more affordable aluminum chassis and it's a big step up from a factory stock. The XRS adds the full-length aluminum core, V-block bedding, more length-of-pull range and a longer M-LOK forend, so it's the one to buy if you're shooting matches or plan to keep adding to the rifle.
Is the FDE a match for other FDE gear?
MDT's Flat Dark Earth is a consistent tan across their line, so this chassis matches their FDE accessories and the Oryx Sportsman T1x in FDE. Across brands, FDE shades vary a little, so expect close rather than exact. If you'd rather not chase shades at all, the Black XRS is the simpler choice.
What scope works on a rimfire like this?
For a .22 you want glass that focuses down close. The Athlon Neos 4-12x40 has a BDC .22 rimfire reticle and side focus, which makes it an easy match for a T1x. Browse all our rifle scopes.
Does Pete's Pillars sell more than chassis?
Yes. We machine our own CZ 457 parts, match barrels, M-LOK weights and pillar bedding here in Michigan, and we carry chassis from MDT, XLR and Grey Birch, barrels from Lilja and L3i, optics, bipods, and reloading gear like the Area 419 ZERO press.
