Tikka's T3x Laminated Stainless provides the adventurous hunter with weather resistance, stability and pinpoint accuracy. It withstands demanding weather conditions with a free-floating, cold hammer-forged, stainless steel barrel, as well as stainless steel receiver, bolt, and bolt handle. Tikka's T3x Laminated Stainless is designed to withstand demanding weather conditions with a sharp-looking gray hard-laminate stock for weather-resistance. The laminated wood cell structure does not expand during shifting weather conditions which minimizes the change in point of impact from where the rifle was zeroed. Weather can change in minutes, but the accuracy and performance of this rifle stands for years.
