I'll have to agree about the poor selection of Tikkas available in the U.S. I'm not concerned so much about which stock is offered, rather it's the chamberings available in the varmint models that get me. In Europe, a buyer can get the Varmint, Varmint Stainless, and the Super Varmint, all in 6.5 X 55 SE. I'd buy any of those varmint models in a second if I could get one here in the states. I probably wouldn't even use it for varmint hunting. I just want the varmint contour barrel on a 6.5 x 55 SE without having to re-barrel one of my current rifles or doing a build from scratch with a new receiver.
