Aside from both being 6.5mm not really. 260 is a 308 case, creed is a 250 savage/22-250 case.

That's what I thought. I'll stick with 6.5x55.

... it's shorter than 30-06, but yes, long action... and perfectly suited to a T3. I am going to wait until December and I'm going to special order a wood-stocked Battue T3x in 6.5x55. It would be a perfect companion for me. Nobody has a Battue T3 in stock in 6.5x55.

Just informed, via email, that Tikka will not be bringing in 6.5x55 T3x Battues for the NA market, ever. 
I guess I'll have to choose between 30-06 and 308.

you have to ask with your dealer. it will take a while but if sako is making stoeger can do it but delays will be the killer ...
Epps had a walnut Battue 30/06 in stock. Much nicer than the plastic version.Just informed, via email, that Tikka will not be bringing in 6.5x55 T3x Battues for the NA market, ever.

I got a SS T3 in 270Win this week from my LGS who will match other prices.
I've noticed. Was creeping around for a .308, but not at 1000+ used

Heading up to Bass Pro with my wallet: $579-$599 Tikka's. Coming home with two. Hopefully one in 243 and another in 270. Neither calibres have been in my collection and at that price, might as well see what they're all about!
EDIT: never mind... Bass Pro lists their stuff in US dollars. Nothing special there.

over-priced IMHO... but a nice rifle. I'll see if EPP's jumps on the T3 fire-sale shagginwaggon to clear space for T3x's.

That is one reason I never shop Bass Pro, they dont even bother to make a Canadian website... sheesh! That's like people that list things for sale on kijiji in US dollars, like come on we are in Canada... I sometimes feel like sending them an offer in Rupees or Yen. Thanks for hiding the true cost in your sales tactic.. Just walk away.
