Im considering a T3X Lite in 6.5 PRC. I'll just have it cut to 20" and threaded 1/2x28 and run an adapter for the can.

Heck, you can get them for under $700. No one wants a non threaded sporter anymore.

Can confirm the majority are going to be 5/8x24 in the lites at least. Unsure about the 223 model. I’ve been seeing shorter barrel lengths listed so they either 1.) slightly changed the contour or 2.) chopped the barrels to where they have enough meat to thread 5/8x24. But yes, none of that metric crap like I originally feared. Also looks like they’re going to stick to the price of $879 for the stainless.

Also, should add: 7 PRC in the lite and now 6.5 PRC in the left hand stainless (which used to be Europe only)

Yes, from the lips of Tikka rep at SHOT last Friday:

ALL will be threaded.

6 Creedmoor in the pipeline for Q 2 or 3 of 2025.
This didn't make the gun media headlines, but I think that's some of the best news coming out of shot show this year.

Here's hoping the 6CM is 18" or 20" and not 22" or 24". Oh, and available as a simple T3X stainless, not just the premium models.

I just received my two Black Friday Tikka stainless rifles back from Kampfeld customs. He chopped, threaded and put on an adapter for 5/8 x 24. They look great for what it's worth.
