Thread: 223 "crossover" thoughts and options

I got a Sako 75 223 for a cobber, they are a good bit heavier than a CZ but less than a "varmint" barrel.

I reckon I need to replace both my current 223s with a "cross-over" configuration something like what Litggow has done with their LA101 22 and LA102 centrefires (yes they do a 223 but they are long action based).

Anybody running a 223 like this, are there any factory options out there?? Thoughts??

I have a mate that has one and like the .22s it is extremely accurate and well made. If they did a lefty I would sell
My tikkas and buy one in 223 and 308. Awesome but if
Kit and you can get aftermarket mags (lucky 13s)
