There are a few things you can do to improve your accuracy when shooting a firearm. Improving accuracy with a firearm takes practise, discipline, and proper technique

1. Proper Stance – A stable and solid shooting stance will go a long way. Feet shoulder-width apart, dominant foot slightly back, lean slightly forward and bend the knees a bit.
2. Scope/sight Alignment – Make sure your firearm’s scope or iron sights are properly aligned. For scopes, align the crosshairs with the target and adjust eye relief and parallax. For iron sights, align the front and rear sights and centre the target in the sight picture. Consistent alignment practice leads to better accuracy.
3. Breath Control – control your breathing to reduce movement while firing. Take a deep breath, exhale half, and then hold your breath while firing.
4. Trigger Control – Maintain a smooth and controlled trigger pull. Avoid jerking the trigger.
5. Practise Regularly – Set aside time to regularly practise at the range to improve your accuracy.

SAKO bought Tikka in 1983 and both rifle brands are proudly manufactured in Finland with the utmost craftsmanship and precision. Tikka is one of the most reliable rifles on the market with its T3x series, known to be lightweight, affordable and tough. Sako takes it to the next level in terms of performance and luxury. Utilising the best materials, the beloved SAKO 90 allows its users to excel in all conditions and environments.

As any experienced rifle owner knows, one of the most enjoyable part of buying a new rifle is getting it to shoot as accurately as possible. If your rifle isn’t shooting to factory standards, there are a few things you can do to troubleshoot. keep reading

The Tikka T3x is an improvement over the Tikka T3 due to the following changes:

Modular stock 

T3x has a new modular synthetic stock that has interchangeable pistol grips, making it possible to modify the angle of the grip. This allows for multiple shooting positions. Additional grips are sold separately. The T3x synthetic stock also has an additional attachment point which allows you to change the width of the stock’s fore-end.

Improved grip

A grip that never slips. The T3x synthetic stock has a new asymmetrical grip pattern and shape that has been specifically designed to give a solid grip in all conditions.

New recoil pad 

T3x models come with a new recoil pad technology that reduces the impact of recoil on the shooter. The new robust pad allows you to fully concentrate on the accuracy of your shots.  

Stock noise reduction

T3x synthetic stocks now have a foam insert within the interior of the rear stock – this lowers the stock-generated noise and can help you keep your target in sight. (Not available for models with an adjustable cheek piece.)

Redesigned ejection port 

The new T3x receiver introduces a widened angular ejection port that makes it easier to feed one cartridge at a time.

Improved rail attachment 

Always keep the target in your sight. The T3x models have extra screw placements on top of the receiver so that you can robustly attach a Picatinny rail – even when using larger scopes.

Metallic bolt shroud 

Robustness and quality go hand in hand. Metallic bolt shroud covers and shields the rear of the bolt body and the firing pin.

Steel recoil lug

This extra-strong lug has minimal deformation – even with larger calibers. Compared to aluminium, the steel lug doesn’t have strong imprinting qualities that would cause deformation when larger calibers are used.

No. They are famous for their out-of-the-box accuracy. Sako and Tikka rifles have been run in at the Sako factory during proof and accuracy testing. It is good practice however to clean your barrel before firing for the first time as there may be some packing grease in your barrel.

Some bench rest shooters still insist on running the rifle in themselves. While it is not required it is of course not at any detriment to the rifle. Guidelines are as follows: 

• Whilst sighting in your rifle for the very first time, before firing, clean the inside of the barrel with a cleaning rod and wipe dry with a clean patch until no packing grease is evident, then fire a shot – repeat the clean procedure after every shot for the first 5 shots together with some mild solvent, then clean once after the next 5 shots, then finally clean again after the next 10 shots (20 shots fired). Allow the barrel to cool between groups of shots (if you can’t hold the barrel with your bare hand, then it is too hot to shoot – let it cool first).
  
  As Sako and Tikka barrels have been lapped several times at the Sako factory, you will find that your barrel should not foul easily – therefore this running in procedure is not as necessary as with other brands of rifles.
