Tikka 6.5 PRC

[goathunter]

I saw this Shot Show 2020 video where the rep stated Tikka would chamber the 6.5 PRC around June 2020, did this ever happen?

I saw the same video but haven’t seen any rifles in person or listed on any websites. Covid probably screwed that up as well.

Not seen a Tikka but there is a Sako chambered in 6.5 PRC.

I hope this is true!!

I messaged them about this the other day and they said “the 6.5 PRC is on the list if everything goes as planned”

 

[Kimber7man]

So which will come first: the Tikka 6.5 PRC rifle or the Lapua 6.5 PRC brass???

I have several boxes of it my friend got me on accident. Thinking I need a 6.5 prc so I can shoot the Ammo then reload it. It’s been on my shelf for well over a year now.

What else is "on the list"?

They didn’t say. I asked about 6 creedmoor and 6.5 PRC offerings in 2021 and this is what they said
“Next year will be full of new things for Tikka. We will communicate the news in due time. The 6.5 PRC is on the list if everything goes as planned. “

I bet they're so swamped by demand for their current offerings it might be on a list for some time

You could sell that 6.5PRC for half what a new gun would cost you.

Gunbroker for $125 a box

Well wouldn’t you know, I Really wanted a 6.5 prc and was going to get a browning. But after handling the tikka a1, I just had to have it. But they only had it in creedmoor, Damit I should have waited.

load your creed hot and you’ll basically have a PRC, I don’t see the hype in the prc it’s nearly identical to a .270 out to 600 yards but then beyond that the prc starts to show its advantage.

I guess if you like blowing primers you can try loading a creedmoor that hot to attempt to match a slow PRC....

Just under 2900 on mine with no pressure signs, a PRC at 3050 hardly has any noticeable gain and inside 600 yards they’re dang near identical

That would be really cool

As long as its not a 10 twist or something stupid.
Tikka really needs to join the 21st century and offer some fast twist rifles
