    It will fit a sako 75
    The stamp will likely be crooked
    Or a gunsmith can set back and rechamber to put it beneath the stock
    Check your headspace

    Awesome thanks, gives me another option to buy
    Not worried about the engraving and where it sits.

    Got me intrigued as to why you have gone in this order, buying a barrel them finding an action to match, makes me think it must be something special, you going to share?
