Description
The MDT Oryx Sportsman Chassis puts genuine precision rifle capabilities within reach. Built from aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum with mil-spec hard anodized finish, this chassis delivers the rigid platform serious rifles need without breaking the bank.
What the Oryx Sportsman Offers Your Tikka
The core engineering is straightforward but effective. Your action beds directly on an aluminum block that eliminates the flex you'd get from a composite stock, while the barrel runs free-floated to prevent pressure points that degrade accuracy. Together these features work to unlock whatever accuracy potential your Tikka T3 already carries from the factory. Installation is drop-in style with no gunsmithing required, and the whole package weighs just 4.2 pounds.
Adjustability Built Around Your Fit
Every shooter is built differently, and the Oryx accommodates that reality. Length of pull adjusts via spacer system from a base 32.25 inches down to roughly 13 inches when you add the included spacer kit. The integrated cheek piece rises and lowers to dial in proper scope alignment so you're not contorting your head to get a sight picture. These aren't gimmicks either; they directly improve accuracy and speed when you're setting up behind your scope.
Setup for Competition and Field Use
The chassis accepts standard AR15 grips, so the aftermarket support is essentially endless. It's built with ARCA rail compatibility and features M-LOK slots underneath the foregrip for mounting modern accessories like bipods or slings. The magazine well takes AICS-spec magazines at 3.560 length for Tikka short actions. Whether you're running PRS matches, hunting hogs at distance, or working on long-range accuracy, the Oryx provides the platform to do it.
