The Tikka T3x Lite in 7mm Rem Mag delivers precision long-range performance in a lightweight package designed specifically for left-handed shooters. This bolt-action rifle combines Finnish engineering with modern materials to create a hunting rifle that excels in demanding field conditions. The fluted and threaded barrel configuration provides both weight reduction and suppressor compatibility.
What Makes This Different
The T3x Lite features Tikka's cold-hammer-forged barrel with a unique fluting pattern that reduces weight by 15% compared to standard contours while maintaining rigidity. The RoughTech synthetic stock incorporates a textured grip surface and modular design that allows shooters to customize the grip angle. The factory-installed muzzle brake reduces felt recoil by approximately 30%, making the powerful 7mm Rem Mag more manageable for extended shooting sessions.
