Sounds good in theory,because the stock is fitted to that contour and Stonecreek said it's not factory.If you cut the threads off the ogive that means a rechamber job though.

Dose this help, hurt or just confuse this build price point ?Wouldn't it also be possible that the builder recontoured the barrel removing the SAKO stamp just forward of the caliber stamping when he cut & recrowned it???? Who knows, once he chucked it up in a lathe he might have felt nostalgic. Does make one wonder.
VERY TRUEIt's a mute point as to what you have in it now.You own it.Take it out and have fun with it.Too late to worry about how much you have in it now.
As has been pointed out, the market for customized rifles is erratic and it is almost impossible to say what a non-factory rifle with a Sako action and modified(?) Sako barrel might bring. With the exception of very high quality and expensive custom work (extra high grade wood; well-executed checkering; deep, high-polished bluing or deep matte bluing; etc.), most customizing lowers the value of a rifle compared to the same in a fully original factory version.Dose this help, hurt or just confuse this build price point ?
Getting the ammo in today and going to shoot tomorrow will post accuracy and feed
Not sure what you mean. Recontouring a barrel has nothing to do with the threads on the shank & I am not aware of a barrel with a "threaded ogive". Just curious.Sounds good in theory,because the stock is fitted to that contour and Stonecreek said it's not factory.If you cut the threads off the ogive that means a rechamber job though.
