That is a gorgeous rifle!!! and a fraction of what it would cost to have one build of that quality......really wish I could justify but that will make someone an incredible investment!!

Dale, I sure wish I coulda seen this earlier! I just paid a lot more for a Cooper in triple deuce. Yours is what I like. Bet it shoots as good as it looks? Someone should get this as it looks like a bargain! Really, I haven't even got my Cooper yet! If only.....Someone give it a good home!

Beautiful wood....but how does it shoot???
Posted By: dale06 Re: FS Custom Sako A1 .222 - 03/10/15
It shoots sub 1" with the only bullet I have shot through it, that being 40 grain ballistic tip.
It has been fired approximately 100 rounds total.
The barrel was broke in with 50 shots
Then I shot some groups, again, sub 1" with 40 grain ballistic tips and H-4198
Beauty is more than skin deep with this gun.

Dale,

Do you know the length of pull and the barrel twist? Thanks.
Posted By: dale06 Re: FS Custom Sako A1 .222 - 03/13/15


LOP is 13 3/4"

Twist is factory Sako, I pushed a patch through the bore and got one turn 14"

Thanks for asking

If I still lived in the US, it would be mine. Would look great next to my Vixen.

Posted By: dale06 Re: FS Custom Sako A1 .222 - 07/04/15
Brassman,
the barrel is factory sporter contour

Passport, you comment re the cost of the stock is "low"
The wood, and all the extras plus finishing is north of $3000
