That may be the most economically sensible thing to do but buying a rifle isn't always about economics for many of us. A concept many tight arses find hard to get their heads around. You also get some nice features with a Sako over a T3.

Gimp seems to do plenty well with a 20 inch 260. 27-2800 should still be achievable with 140's no? go with the factory length and whack a suppressor on the end. Lop of an inch is you fancy it should still have you clear of the flutes. My rifle is an 18" plus can, honestly I dont think an extra 1 or 2 inches would make any practical difference in the bush
