You're a bit behind the times - not only has GRS announced its "Tacticool" chassis, but it's out and shipping for the T3, but it ain't cheap - depending on the exchange rate it's around
£860 + shipping from the Vertebrae Shop in Norway, I doubt it's reached our shores yet, but I don't see it retailing here for much under a Grand!

Right now Bolthorn chassis stock has been released for the Tikka T3 short action inlets. Despite what you can read on GRS web site, you can expect Bolthorn chassis for long action T3 6,5x55SE not earlier than beginning of April.

The Bolthorn chassis for T3 short action is available from Vertebrae Norway now from stock as our eastern European correspondent says it'll be a bit longer for the so-called long action model.
Goodness knows when any version will be available here in the UK, but I predict a ridculous premium on the price
