I was waiting too but ended up buying a tikka 8 twist 243. I hand load though. Couldn't be happier

Still undecided on whether to rebarrel my 270 superlite with a 18" 6CM PBB, or sell the 270 and put $ toward one of these new 6CM tikka models.

Hoping in a few years that Tikka take-off barrels are as accessible as the 6.5CM ones…that alone breathes new life into the 6CM for me.

I think I will buy as many as I can. Whatever 6 creed I don’t sell, I will use them as donor rifles. The goal is the sell the barrels more easily…

You can put a 6cm prefit in a Tikka long action 270?? If so, I have a Tikka 270 ready to go. Any modifications that need to be done for this?

Yep. You will need a different magazine though.

Swap the barrel, and it’s good to go. Better to use M or M+ mags. You can also change to a shorter bolt stop but it is not necessary.

We will have more 18” 6 creed prefits in a few weeks and more on order.

All Tikka actions are the same length. They have different bolt stops ($5) which control how far back you can pull the bolt. They also have different magazines ($35).

But yes, otherwise they’re interchangeable.
