Sako-addicted
I have a set of ring mounts in a box labeled Tikka scope mount for M55,M65,M558,M658 with the part#4418. On the back of the box it has Sako LTD. SF-11 100 Riihimaki, Finland & Made in Australia.
As the Tikka dovetail is straight & the Sako dovetails are tapered, are ring mounts labeled Sako machined differently for this taper or will the Tikka ring mounts also work on a Sako? One of them has the little nib on the bottom to fit in the slot in the rear dovetail on the Sako ( front dovetail on the Tikka). I installed these ring mounts on a L46 & they "seem" to fit. I was just wondering if the difference in the taper could cause them to come loose under use or if they are not recommended for use on a Sako.
