In 2016, the series received an overhaul and the improved models were named Tikka T3x. The main changes were an enlarged ejection port, a steel recoil lug replacing the T3's aluminium lug, and a metal bolt shroud replacing the T3's plastic.[2][3] All improved parts of the T3x are backward compatible with the older T3 models.[2][4]
