� These blow ups are not due to bad barrel steel. I would blame the ammo long before the rifle. Something just isn't right here. I think Barretta recalled the rifles to cover themselves, but they know it is an ammo problem.


All due respect, Sako blames it on a batch of stainless barrel steel that didn�t meet specifications. That�s why the recall is limited to a specific range of serial numbers � just the rifles that got made with that batch of stainless.

You�re welcome to point fingers elsewhere, but I suggest that Sako has the correct answer.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
