Far as I know, they do not make a PRC in CTR, but if they do, it's completely new to me.

Nevermind, I stand corrected. Just went to Tikka website and they actually do offer a 6.5 PRC in a CTR. Didn't know till just now.

Hello,

If/when Beretta USA decides to import them to the US, we will be sure to have a listing on our website.

EuroOptic Ltd




Well, that’s Beretta.

With Beretta, it could be a long azzed wait. If it ever happens. They have a lot of stuff overseas, that they do not import to USA. Good luck with it though..

theres a stainless tikka 6.5 prc barrel on ebay. Pick up a T3 with the right bolt, swap barrels an sell the left over barrel.

Probably too much effort for him.

I suggested this:

Another option I've read about here. A gunsmith in CA is converting 6.5 Creedmoor Tikkas to PRC for about $400.

The Tikka's in PRC are a good choice if found. The 6.5 Creedmoor ammo is much cheaper across the board so I got the CTR.
I also have a S20 in 6.5 PRC which is very nice and shoots great for a great price.

Appreciate the info on the s20. I think he’s leaning that way. For the eurooptic sale price, it seems a good way to go.
