The Tikka T3x Rifle is made by Sako of Finland. It is a durable hunting rifle with choice blue or stainless steel and is built with a cold hammer-forged barrel that is free-floated to deliver unmatched accuracy and precision. The stock is designed to reduce the noise created when firing the rifle for added concealment while hunting. The steel recoil lug smoothly transfers recoil to the stock to reduce muzzle jump, while a contoured recoil pad absorbs recoil to deliver more comfortable shooting. For smoother ejection and cycling, this hunting rifle features a widened ejection port and metallic bolt shroud.
Caliber 243 WIN Ammo capacity 3 + 1, 22.4 in. barrel, 42.6 in. overall length, weighs 6.5 lbs., 1:10 twist barrel.
The .243 Winchester (6.2×52mm) is a popular sporting rifle cartridge. Developed as a versatile short action cartridge to hunt both deer size game and varmints. It was introduced in 1955, and remains one of the most popular whitetail deer cartridges. It is also commonly used for mule deer with heavier loads, and is equally suited to varmint hunting with lighter rounds. The .243 is based on a necked down .308 Winchester, introduced only three years earlier.
Gun Digest estimates that (as of the end of 2018) the .243 Winchester is second-most popular of all hunting rifle chamberings.
