Burris XTB 2-Piece Rail for Tikka

• Two-piece tactical base design: The split layout leaves more access to the rifle’s action while giving flexible ring placement, which helps when fitting different scope lengths on Tikka rifles.
• Steel construction: A steel base resists wear from repeated optic changes and hard recoil, helping the mount stay stable over long-term field or range use.
• Weaver and Picatinny ring compatibility: The XTB pattern works with Weaver-style, Picatinny-style, and mil-spec rings, making it easier to match the base with existing tactical optics hardware.
• Mil-spec cross slots: Precisely cut slots support a secure mechanical lock between base and ring, reducing the chance of movement under recoil or during frequent transport.
• Low-profile matte finish: The compact, matte-black form keeps bulk down and avoids unnecessary glare, which suits both practical hunting rifles and tactical bolt-action setups.

About the Burris XTB Mount Series

The Burris XTB Mount series is Burris’ tactical-style base line for shooters who want a strong, straightforward interface between rifle and optic. Built around steel construction and cross-slot compatibility, the series is designed to support a wide range of riflescope setups using Weaver-style, Picatinny-style, and mil-spec rings. That makes it a practical choice for users who already own tactical rings or who want more flexibility than a proprietary mounting system offers.

Within Burris’ mounting range, the XTB family focuses on durability, repeatable fit, and low-profile installation. The design keeps unnecessary height and weight to a minimum while still providing the robust engagement expected from a tactical base. Depending on the rifle pattern, the series includes models with features such as a reversible front base, which helps accommodate different scope tube lengths and mounting positions. In use, the XTB concept suits hunting rifles, range rifles, and general-purpose tactical bolt actions where a stable optic platform matters as much as the scope itself.

About the Burris XTB 2-Piece Rail for Tikka

The Burris XTB 2-Piece Rail for Tikka is built for shooters who want to mount a riflescope on compatible Tikka actions without adding unnecessary bulk. Its two-piece Picatinny-style base layout gives more open access around the receiver than a full-length rail, which can be useful when loading, unloading, or simply keeping the rifle’s top profile cleaner. At the same time, it still provides the familiar cross-slot interface needed for tactical optics rings.

This model uses a steel body with a matte black finish, a combination that favors long-term mechanical strength and a subdued appearance on working rifles. The XTB design is intended to work with Weaver rail-compatible rings, including Weaver-style, Picatinny-style, and mil-spec patterns, so it fits easily into existing scope setups. For shooters building around a Tikka T3 or T3x, or older compatible Tikka and Lynx actions, that broad ring compatibility makes optic selection simpler.

A key practical detail is the reversible front base design used in the XTB two-piece family. This gives extra freedom when positioning the front ring, which can help when mounting scopes with different tube lengths, saddle positions, or large ocular housings. In practice, that means less compromise in eye relief and ring spacing, especially on rifles set up for hunting optics or general precision shooting.

About Burris

Burris was founded in 1971 and took its name from founder Don Burris. The company is based in Greeley, Colorado, United States, and has long focused on optics and mounting solutions for hunting and tactical shooting. Its product range includes riflescopes, red-dot and reflex sights, binoculars, spotting scopes, rangefinders, thermal optics, rings, and mounts, which places Burris among the established names covering both aiming systems and the hardware that supports them.

Over time, Burris has introduced several notable products and technologies tied closely to practical field use. The company launched the Ballistic Plex trajectory-compensating reticle in 2000, introduced the FastFire mini red-dot reflex sight in 2007, and followed with the Eliminator riflescope in 2010, combining laser rangefinding with automatic bullet-drop compensation. Beretta Holdings acquired Burris in 2002, and Burris has continued to develop optics and mounts for shooters who value functional, field-oriented design.
