Description:
This is a nice bolt action hunting rifle made by Tikka of Finland. It uses a left hand action and is chambered for the classic .270 Winchester round and has the standard factory 3-round magazine. The rifle has been fitted with a Vortex Diamond 4-12x40mm rifle scope. The rifle comes with a large Gun Guard hard case with the original manual and safety lock. With the Vortex Diamond scope and chambered for the 270 Winchester, the T3 in stainless steel makes for an excellent long-range, all-weather hunting rifle. Although used, the rifle remains in excellent shape. The .270 Winchester was originally introduced in 1925 but was not immediately popular due to the relatively recent introduction of the .30-06 Springfield in 1906. It is was also an odd standout in terms of its .277-inch diameter bullet. The only other cartridge to use this bullet diameter prior to the .270 Win was the Chinese 6.8x57 Mauser cartridge for use in the Model 1907 Chinese Mauser and even that cartridge is mostly unheard of (many of the Model 1907s were rechambered for the standard German 8x57 Mauser). There is some debate about whether Winchester got the idea for the .270 from the Chinese round or if they simply took inspiration from the more familiar 7x57 Mauser. The .270 picked up in popularity after World War II once American hunters realized the .270 could shoot a flatter trajectory than its cousin the .30-06. Available bullets for the .270 range from the light weight 90 gr bullets up to the heavy 160 gr bullets. As a general rule of thumb, the 90 to 110 gr bullets are for varmints and small deer, 130 gr for mid-size deer, sheep, mountain goats, and antelope, while the 140 gr to 160 gr are for large deer, elk, caribou, and even moose. The 130 gr bullet is most popular followed closely by the 150 gr bullet.
