Tikka T3 Hunter .270 WSM Bolt-Action Rifle – Blued Steel, Walnut Stock, 24.3-Inch Barrel
This Tikka T3 Hunter pairs classic walnut styling with Tikka’s renowned T3 action, offering a lightweight sporter chambered in the hard-hitting .270 WSM. A free-floating, cold-hammer-forged barrel and user-adjustable single-stage trigger deliver the precision Tikka rifles are known for, while an integral 17 mm dovetail rail makes scope mounting straightforward. The uncommon .270 WSM chambering in a walnut-stocked Hunter configuration adds collector and field appeal.

What’s Included
- Tikka T3 Hunter .270 WSM rifle
- One factory Tikka 3-round detachable polymer magazine
The T3 Hunter’s 24.3-inch sporter barrel is cold-hammer forged from chromoly steel, free-floated, and finished with a recessed crown to protect accuracy in the field. Tikka’s manufacturing standards and this barrel’s construction are widely credited for sub-MOA performance.
An adjustable single-stage trigger, factory-set between roughly 2–4 pounds, lets the shooter fine-tune pull weight for hunting or bench work. A two-position safety allows cycling the bolt while on safe.
The oil-finished walnut stock offers a straight comb and crisp cut checkering for a secure grip without added weight. Length of pull measures 13.75 inches, balancing the rifle for comfortable shouldering.
Tikka machines the receiver and bolt from chromoly steel and finishes both in a deep blue. The receiver carries an integral 17 mm dovetail scope rail, eliminating extra bases and keeping optics mounted low over the bore.
Chambered in .270 Winchester Short Magnum, this rifle combines flat trajectory with magnum-level energy, making it well-suited for medium to large game while remaining uncommon in the T3 Hunter lineup.
