Are the actions on the sako finnlights the same as the m85 actions? Assuming they are but I’ve made assumptions before. Looking to replace barrel with a proof pre fit
Perfect!! Looking to replace the stock too. I know there are fans of that stock out there but I’m not personally in love with it to be honest.Yes, I did the same last year. The tikka prefits will fit the sako 85. Stocks are the issue.
Yupp, same with the sticky gummy feelingI just had finnlight stock replaced with MPI Custom stock…they did a great job on it.
The original stock was all gummy/sticky.

Bought it second hand that way…Where did you get your muzzle break done?
I’m you mentioned AG composites. Held one today for the first time and it felt really really good. I like the price of them even moreThere are not lots of options for a carbon barrel, very few actually. Fierce is the easiest, but I went with a flat top from AG composites and had my gunsmith cut it for me. I’m very pleased with the work and how it shoots, but it was quite a process.
Which AG stock did you get? I can’t find which flat top stock you referencedI agree with the quality of the AG composite stock. Just wish it was factory cut for a Sako like it is a tikka!
Who did the work inletting the stock for your 85? Do you have any photos of the process and finished product?There are not lots of options for a carbon barrel, very few actually. Fierce is the easiest, but I went with a flat top from AG composites and had my gunsmith cut it for me. I’m very pleased with the work and how it shoots, but it was quite a process.
That looks very nice. I am wanting to put my Sako 85 in an AG adjustable hunter in the future. This helps, thanks!Jon Powers in Lafayette, LA did the work. Did a good job. Here’s the finished product.
The whole bottom metal has a reveal or just the magazine protrudes?The stock is a bit too short, leaving the magazine exposed a bit. It’s not flush like the factory stock. But it’s not much. I’m very happy with the finished product.
