FWIW, I got an L46 that had been reamed to 223. Turned out to be the most accurate rifle I own....or did own. My 18 year old grandson came up from FL a couple of months ago to shoot my guns and the Sako went home with him. It shoots bullet weights up through 55 gr like a champ. The 60 gr Partition would barely stabilize but did manage to stay close to MOA. Anything heavier than that was hopeless. Using the tight patch method, I measured the twist to be between 13 and 14. Don't know if my measurement was off or the slightly newer L461s had a slightly tighter twist. Take that info for what it's worth in making your decision.
