No-one makes a really light stock for a Sako L579/AII action. One of the things that I disliked about the Sako 7-08AI was the weight. The Sako will be a heavier action than a Rem 700,but if it has to be Sako, I understand, I have a couple myself. You emphasize that the rifle must be "LIGHT". You could get a reamer that cuts a shorter throat in the chamber so you can get the bullet closer to the lands. The short Rem 700 and the medium Sako have the same mag box length at about 2.80". I have a 25/284 on a short Remington 700 and it's about the same.10" to the lands to fit the mag box. The 284 had to have the bullets seated about. The 257 AI would be a tight fit, but if you are not real fussy about having the bullets near the lands it will work. It fed better in 284 than it did in 7-08AI.
I rechambered it to 284 before I sold it. I had a custom 7-08 Ackley on a Sako L579 action. Your thoughts and comments are welcome, so please, all you smart people out there, educate me! The caliber? Either a 257 Roberts Ackley Improved, or a. Fiberglass stock, Leupold scope, fit to me. I thought about buying a short action sako rifle and having it rebarreled, then thought, "No, let me start from scratch".Ībove all else, the rifle must be LIGHT. Oh Yeah (as I edit this) what is a SUCKS action? It seems more makers are using their own actions, are these made from scratch or modified actions? I like the Sako for the intergal sight base. Seems alot of makers used Sakos and I'm curious as to why. So, any ideas where to get one? So far my internet searches have turned up nothing useful.Ģnd: Who would you recommend? I see some advertisers here and on the net, I'm curious if someone's name comes up repeatedly.ģrd: Why are Sako actions so popular? You may ask why I chose Sako and ask this question, it's because I have 2 Sakos and I want a wildcat cartridge and I like Sakos. I have a couple of requirements/questions:įirst: I really want a Sako action.
