The Lite Roughtech First Lite variant pairs Tikka’s T3x action with a textured synthetic stock finished in a tan/brown First Lite camouflage. The stock includes a vertical-style grip insert, front and rear sling studs, and a LimbSaver recoil pad. Metalwork wears a matte gray finish for low glare.
The 24.3 inch cold hammer-forged barrel is fluted to reduce weight and aid cooling. It is threaded 5/8x24 and comes with a radial ported muzzle brake installed, plus a thread protector for use when the brake is removed. The 1:8 twist is suited to common 6.5 PRC bullet lengths.
The right-hand bolt uses a spiral-fluted body and a large round knob for positive manipulation. Feeding is from a detachable single-column polymer magazine that holds 3 rounds; total capacity is 3+1. A two-position safety at the right rear of the action blocks both the trigger and the bolt.
The receiver carries Tikka’s integral dovetail and factory drilled and tapped holes for scope bases. Proof and origin markings include CIP N and FI 23, with Made in Finland by SAKO and importer marks from Beretta U.S.A. Corp., ACKK, MD 20607.
