I met a rep for tikka a year or so ago and told him they need to import a few more T3 sporters in 260. He said he'd see what he could do. He called me a while back and said 8 were being imported and he was having one sent to the local shop I met him at. They called me the other day and told me to come see what they have. It was a stainless sporter but with the laminate wood stock. I'd actually prefer the plastic. It was pretty pricey with the laminate at about $840. I didn't pick it up because I got in on the campfire group buy MRC 260. I'm still a bit tempted but they also had a stainless ctr for only $160 more.
