tikka t3 lite .204 ruger no longer made?

[SlickerThanSnot]

i can find the compact version (20" barrel) in a .204 chambering but not any with the 22" barrel.

is it no longer being made? did tikka ever make one with the longer barrel? anybody know the deal on this?

seems strange because tikka offers the 22" barrel on all the other varmint chamberings.

What Tikka makes and what Beretta imports aren't always the same thing. They do list the 204 in their other models

Tikka .204 first sales were in Canada, then Scheels had them.
As the .204 got more popular Beretta imported more and is known for quirky changes or exclusive deals like Cabelas.
Seems like the .204 isn't as popular this year.
Anyway, yes they have been selling 22 inch versions for several years and some are still available, even Hunter model.

That's the compact version, he's looking for the standard 22"

Sorry, I miss read the post. Buds from time to time does have the standard t3 lite in 204. I almost bought one. It is usually the ss version

22" in blued or stainless is no longer imported so good luck finding a new old stock or used gun. They do still sell the varmint however.

The varmint has a 23 3/4 or 5/8" barrel. Longest made on a 204 produced by Sako.
