Tikka rifles are used by accomplished shooters in disciplines varying from big-game hunting to long-range competition shooting. They are known worldwide for their tremendous accuracy out-of-the-box, great ease of use, simple maintenance, and availability of parts for upgrades. If you are in the market of improving your stock Tikka rifle, a great piece to look at is new bottom metal specifically from High Desert Rifle Works. The High Desert Rifle Works Linear Bottom Metal is their newest product in a long line of quality upgrades to the platform. Established back in 2014, they have been crafting and tailoring products for Tikka firearms for years.

The High Desert Rifle Works Linear Bottom Metal is designed to complement modern rifle stocks, and allow more room for a gloved hand while shooting. This can be invaluable on frigid days afield hunting or blustery days on the firing line at a competition. The reason why the Linear Bottom Metal from High Desert Rifle Works is worth investing in is in the finer details. Aluminum’s increased strength means you can easily torque the action screw to 45 In/Lbs. The trigger guard’s decreased flexibility removes vibration. These two benefits together increase your potential accuracy. Some of the other specifications for the Linear Bottom Metal can be read below as presented by High Desert Rifle Works:

• Aluminum Trigger Guard for Tikka T3/T3x Lite, Superlite, Hunter, Compact, Tac, Varmint, Forest, and Battue series of rifles
