bigj,
Love the stock, rifle and chambering.
How difficult was it to modify the Bansner for the Sako AI? I modified a Bansner for a Colt Light Rifle once.
Jerry Very easy. The biggest difference is around the tang - you need to add a little material there. I ended up building a mate to this one in 222 for the new owner. Unfortunately bansner was with legendary arms or maybe just left and this stock was no longer available. We used a McMillan patterned on a actual sako stock that accuflite sells. I thought it turned out nice, but the owner says the bansner is a better fit for the little action. It should be noted that the McMillan was a standard fill and it should have been edge fill. The best would be if wildcat started producing a sporter stock for these. They are lighter and stiffer than bansners but unfortunately they only offer the varmint style at this time. There's 9 oz of weight difference in the rifles, with the 222 being heavier . Definite difference in the balance feel of the rifle. The 6x45 is my favorite, though the crows and magpies are going to catch hell with the 222 later this week. F
