2026 Tikka Superlite Stainless 6.5 Creed?

[TimbeHuntin]

I’ve been looking for the new version of the Tikka T3x Superlite in a 6.5 Creedmoor flavor with a 20” stainless barrel. Sportsman’s has a few other calibers of this exact gun calling it the “Gen 2” but no 6.5CM. Bass Pro has their camo stocked version of the Superlite but only with a 22.4” barrel. Euro Optic has the Roughtech Superlite but it has the old barrel thread pattern with the adapter for 5/8-24. There’s the Compact Tactical version with an unfluted barrel in 20”. I’m starting to wonder if the configuration I’m looking for even exists. Is the Bass Pro camo 22.4” the closest thing I’m going to find?

Im not sure if they have a 20" version for the new superlite, but I did pick up one of the barrels from OMR off eBay where they sell their takes offs. its 22.4" and it is the new fluted threaded superlite version.

Sportsman’s has a 20” .243 and .308 in the new Superlite. Maybe they aren’t going to have the 6.5CM in a 20”

Yeah maybe so, might have to search up a SKU to see of it exist

I'd still buy the cheapest stainless version I could find and have a gunsmith chop to 18" and thread 1/2x28 with a Dowrange 5/8x24 adapter. Should be under $200 all in.
