Why no Tikka 7PRC?

Anyone know if they are planning to join the game? I can see why there would be hesitation with the whole hornady controversy, but it should still be a very popular round in the long run.

I would love to grab a Lite Veil, but i dont want to start over on gathering ammo and supplies.

Just curious.

US manufactures go by SAAMI, Europe use CIP (I believe) - CIP has not yet approved 7 PRC, but most likely will.

In 1914 the Liège Proof Master (1908 - 1946) M. Joseph FRAIKIN, was involved from the very beginning in the creation of the Permanent International Commission(the C.I.P.) for the Proof of Small Arms

The C.I.P. lays down common rules and regulations for the proof of weapons and their ammunition in order to ensure the mutual recognition of Proof Marks by its member states. Fourteen countries are C.I.P. Member States.

If I remember right, CIP has now approved 7 prc.

Tikka/Sako/Beretta is an extremely old company. Beretta is 500 years old. They aren’t at all in a hurry to jump on the latest and greatest, but once their products come out, they are always excellent.
