Michael Buehner (verified owner) –
I purchased the MDT ESS chassis to suit a left hand Tikka T3X, but needed this MDT Forend to complete the transformation.
I’ve got a low mount scope, that sits 5mm above the barrel, so I got the “no rail” version.
Once built, the top part of the forend is just low enough that you dont see any protrusions thru the scope. Very pleased.
The website does not mention additional mount types, but I asked, amd received an immediate response advising a picatinny rail can be added behind the strap mount.
Super happy with the entire MDT range of components. My Tikka T3X is now hidden inside a beasty chassis skin!!!!! ….and I still keep my guaramteed 1 MOA from SAKO
