Thread: Sako s20

The S20 has a heavier profile than your standard Sako or tikka.
It is actually almost the same profile as the new tikka Veil, with its 5/8-24 thread.
If one gunsmith has the opportunity to take an s20 barrel out, it would be interesting to see if that barrel tenon and head space has the same dimensions has the standard tikka t3 or Sako 85 tenon dimensions. In which case you could swap the original barrel for a lighter one.
Who would like to volunteer? :-)
( of course that long mid weight barrel could easily be chopped down to 18" ... or less ;-)

A mate as the s20 hunter model in 6.5prc, shoots and functions really well with precision hunter ammo. He likes the added weight as doesn't usually have to carry it far and does a bit of LR gong shooting.
