Tikka T3x Arctic in 308 Winchester Features
Approved by the military
When the Canadian Rangers were choosing their new rifle, the T3x Arctic beat all of its rivals. The Canadian Rangers operate in some of the toughest conditions in the most remote areas of world and they chose the T3x because it combines second to none weather resistance and performance.
Advanced open sights and picatinny rail as standard
Open sights enable quick shots and easy target acquisition. Tikka T3x Arctic sights are phosphated for improved weather resistance. The rear sight controls the height adjustment. The height adjustment wheel has steps for different distances up to 600 meters.
Birch laminate stock guarantees stiffness and rigidity
Laminate birch stock will retain rigidity, which is ideal to maintain consistent bedding between the stock and the barrelled action. Also if you want to stand out from the crowd with a cheerful color scale.
Arctic precision
Free-floating semi-heavy barrel effectively eliminates vibration and withstands heating better, offering a solid accuracy performance.
Cold hammer forged barrel
Cold hammer forging produces accurate and durable barrels. During cold hammer forging, Tikka barrels are hammered from all sides against the mandrel inside the barrel, transferring the mirror image of the rifling machined on the surface of the mandrel. Cold hammer forged barrel gives you out of the box accuracy without the need for breaking in the rifle.
The action is designed for accuracy
Extremely rigid action with the same footprint as its bigger sibling T3x bolt. The bolt face and extractor claw hold tightly on the empty case while extracting and mechanical ejection makes sure that the case is ejected every time. With 45° opening angle leaving plenty of room for handling the bolt.
Feel the right moment
In every shooting situation the rifle is always moving slightly, especially when pulling the trigger. This is why it is critical to have the rifle trigger manufactured according to very tight tolerances. Minimal rifle trigger lock time decreases the time between trigger engagement, trigger break and the impact of the firing pin on the primer. This results in excellent rifle trigger control and greater potential for accuracy.
Ready for accessories
Tikka is a safe choice, since it’s always possible to modify the rifle to fit a wide range of specific shooting situations. READ MORE
