If Whittaker's continues their pricing on T3x rifles into 2018 then it would sell considerably cheaper than that. They are more than $200 under that price on current T3x stainless lite models.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery.
Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

I am in for a 6.5 Creed or a 7mm08, whichever I can get first, in a lite stainless left hand. Will be following the progress made by Shortactionsmoker.

Darrik send me a "PM" saying they would not be getting the T3X "Light" in 6.5 in left hand as the lite model was an exclusive with Sportsman Wharehouse. I am not sure that makes sense as other dealers have the lefty lite 6.5 Creed listed on Gunbroker. HMMM!! I would prefer the T3X lite model myself.

Been checking prices on a new SS 6.5 Creed Moor barrel on my LH Rem 700 in 308 Win about $650, about what I can sell it for. I am going to wait for the Tikka.

It is my understanding that the "Superlight" is a Sportsman Warehouse exclusive, but I could be wrong.

Hopefully, Darrik will catch this thread with the correct answer if Whittakers will be shipped the T3X "Lite" model.

We will be getting left hand T3X Lites in 6.5 Creedmoor. They’re due by April 18th....maybe sooner.
I met with them at SHOT about importing models that were currently made for the European market. The verdict is still out.
Superlite’s (black stock, stainless) are a Sportsman’s Warehouse exclusive. Cabelas receives a camo/stainless superlite as their exclusive.
I’m going to be totally honest here — if you look at our pricing on the stainless T3X Lites and compare it to the the stainless Superlite’s, you’ll see a big difference in the pricing. I have no desire to play in that arena and jockey for position for the exclusive. That’s a bunch of money for a few flutes!
I’ll go back through this thread today and address other questions.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Darrik,
Please post when you have the "pre-order" up for the Tikka on Whittakers website.
