R3 will have S 172.16.0.0/24 in its routing table.

When a packet with dip 172.16.0.22 is received on any interface of R3, it will be matched with the above entry in routing table and router will forward it to next-hop / exit interface. As you have a point-to-point interface as outgoing, R3 will forward the packet on exit interface s1/1/0. If next-hop is given for serial interface an unnecessary routing table lookup will be necessary.
