Key Features
Construction & Ergonomics
The T3X Lite Roughtech Desert features a synthetic stock finished with a rough texture, enhancing grip and control in adverse weather. The desert tan color scheme offers effective camouflage in arid environments. The modular stock system allows for interchangeable pistol grips, facilitating shooter customization for improved handling posture. The polymer stock also incorporates a foam insert, reducing stock-generated noise for a quieter field experience. An enlarged ejection port on the receiver streamlines cartridge cycling, optimizing operational efficiency.
Performance & Precision
This rifle is chambered in .270 Winchester, a proven cartridge known for its flat trajectory and effectiveness across a range of game. The 22-inch barrel is cold hammer-forged, a manufacturing process that ensures material consistency and barrel longevity, contributing directly to sub-MOA precision potential. The T3X action is equipped with a metallic bolt shroud for enhanced durability and a robust steel recoil lug for consistent bedding and shot-to-shot accuracy. The single-stage trigger system is user-adjustable, allowing for fine-tuning to individual preference, thereby optimizing trigger control and mitigating shot disturbance.
Reliability & Utility
The T3X platform is designed for long-term reliability and straightforward maintenance. The detachable box magazine provides secure feeding and facilitates rapid reloads. The receiver is factory drilled and tapped, accommodating standard scope mounts for direct optics integration without modification. The overall “Lite” designation indicates a design focus on reduced weight, easing transport and handling during extended periods in the field.
