Tikka Varmint and CTR difference

I’m relatively new to Tikka T3x’s. Can someone explain the difference between the Varmint and CTR’s.
From what I can see, the CTR has a threaded barrel and pic rail. The stocks might vary slightly too but my interest is primarily the barrel and action.
Am I correct on that ? I think different triggers are available too.
 
I have a CTR, it is threaded, and it does have the pic rail. I have never seen a Varmint in person, but the Tikka website indicates that the varmint has a 24" barrel and the stock appears to have a wider forearm than the CTR. Have no clue about the barrel contour. I ordered a $10 spring kit for my trigger and it's pretty nice, but then again, I'm not a trigger connoisseur.
 
Thanks gents. Kinda what I surmised. Yeah I bought the spring too.
My T3x varmint shot a single hole at 50 yds when boresighting ( first two shots in brand new gun with crappy PMC .223 ammo, then a .22 group at 100yds)
Ordered another varmint in 6.5CM and a T1x 22LR and three KRG Bravo chassis’s. Very excited.
