Anybody know if there are any plans for Tikka to make a 6mm Creedmoor?
I’ve about convinced myself it’s the perfect whitetail round out to about 500 yards (as far as I care to shoot at one).
A 6mm Creedmoor would be pretty sweet, as long as we get a fast twist in it.
Do you really think a long-time rifle company like Tikka, which makes 6.5 Creedmoors, would bring out a 6mm Creedmoor with a 1-10 twist?

I was thinking the same, but refrained from replying as my response wouldn’t have been as tactful as yours.
Never seen one any slower than 1-8". My FC is 1-7", which should keep me abreast of bullet design, for a while at least.
Very few rifle manufactures have jumped in chambering the 6MM Creedmoor which is sad as this new off shoot from the 6.5 Creed deserves to survive in the marketplace.
Ruger has a bunch; Browning, Howa, and Barrett are the ones I know off the top of my head. The wheels grind slowly. The 6.5 took a while too.
Not to worry; I got mine! When (IF!) I ever downsize, that one is a strong contender to be the last one standing.

If it makes you feel any better I also suffer greatly in comparison to Mule Deer 😁

Well they did twist their 223 cleverly with a 1 in 8 “, but then hamstrung it with a magazine with a massive spacer block that won’t allow the better bullets to be used
