You can choose a blued or stainless barrel, fluted or regular. The fluted barrel makes the rifle lighter to carry, improves heat dissipation and balances the rifle.
Oiled Walnut Stock - Hunter family stocks have been made of selected walnut stock and the oiled finish is easy to maintain. Regular oiling keeps the stock in good condition and it lasts from generation to generation.
Lightweight Barrel Profile - Lighter barrel makes the rifle easier to carry and are easier to hold up for extended periods.
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 made from hardened steel with a two-locking lug T3x bolt. The bolt features a spring-loaded plunger ejector and a removable bolt handle with a 70 degree 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 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
