i find it funny that beretta wont import tikkas in 260 to the usa but they will to canada, or at least stoeger canada is still dealing with our products. looking at the wholesale sports catalogue right now i can see that they have the t3 hb stainless in 260 for 1059.99 cad (yes our guns are pricey up here, might be because of a different distributer), and a t3lite blued in 260 for 769.99 cad. i think wholesale sports have a few stores across the border but when checking on their american website i noticed that they dont have them in .260
