Design considerations and tactical benefits

Key detail: this is a 5-round magazine explicitly compatible with the T3 Compact Tactical Rifle in .308 Winchester or .260 Remington. Both calibers are favored for mid- to long-range precision work — .308 offering proven terminal ballistics and broad ammo availability, .260 delivering high ballistic coefficient performance in a slightly lower-recoil package. Matching a magazine designed for the rifle minimizes misfeeds and ensures the proper cartridge alignment necessary for tight groups.

Fit, handling, and range use

Using a purpose-fit magazine like this one preserves the rifle’s ergonomics and balance. A 5-round capacity keeps the magazine profile low, beneficial for hunters working in confined positions and for shooters who prefer a compact footprint on a tactical chassis. The Tikka name is notable for consistent chamber-to-bore alignment and smooth actions; equipping your T3 Compact Tactical with the correct magazine supports that reputation in the field.

For those checking pricing and availability, the magazine is listed at $37.79 — a modest investment to maintain reliable feeding and match-grade function. View product details and pricing on the shop page to confirm fit and current stock.
