Hey Tikka!

Are you bringing a 6mm Creedmoor to the Canadian Market in 2020?

Twitter is the other app on your phone.

Just curious if you think that someone who actually works at Tikka checks this forum?

You may have better luck with Stoeger Canada (who are not sponsors of this site I don't think, but do import all the Beretta brands) or emailing Tikka directly? Randomly posting here will not get you anywhere I don't think.

I’ve been in touch withTikka Finland. Their responses wait and see Just wondered if there was any other interest and dude I don’t have Twitter on my phone

I would be interested in a Tikka 6 Creed, but more interested in a Kimber Montana in a 6 Creed..
Would buy both..

Why not just buy a Tikka and have a gunsmith rebarrel it in 6 creedmoor?

There's also a few companies making prefits for Tikkas. For example, Proof makes shouldered barrel prefits for Tikka T3's in 6 Creedmoor. https://proofresearch.com/barrels/tikka-steel-pre-fit-specs/

We also have pre-fits in stock in 6mm from Patriot Valley Arms

Tikka was a little slow to the 6.5cm game, I'd be surprised (pleasantly) to see the 6mm Creed in their lineup. It would be a fantastic addition, a 7.7 twist T3x Lite & T3x CTR would be slick. Great cartridge, really smokes a 10 twist 243 with both reloads and factory ammo

You are seriously preaching to the choir 24 inch CTR and 6 mm would be perfect

Tikka operates off of a european business model - pretty reluctant to change anything that "isn't broken".

I wouldn't expect a 6 creedmoor Tikka anytime soon.

Why would you say that ? They Chamber every other POPULAR Cartridge ! RJ

Yeah just buy a used Tikka and spin on a barrel - done!

That opens a ton of possibilities ... If I were to do that I would want to start with a new rifle. Personally I would find it hard to buy a rifle and essentially throw all of it away and just use the action. So it would trigger a complete custom build featuring Canadian companies or a new Cadex ... So that means cash!

I have a Cadex chassis and would love a 6mm creed for it. Easy recoil, easy reload! failing that I can settle for 260 rem

Then I would build up on a Bighorn Origin - probably one of the best values in "custom actions", great quality and features to start a more budget friendly precision rifle build.

Or if you like the specs of the Tikka, you can build off of Ultimatums upcoming Tikka clone:

But no telling when that will be released

There won't be any just SPIN ONS chambered in this cartridge ! RJ
