[QUOTE="RedRaider, post: 444196, member: 28583"] I have been lurking for a while and appreciate all the incredible information on these forums. Simply amazing! I have a Sako 85 SS in .338 Federal. I love this gun and the chambering, but want to make it more accurate if possible. I would like to put a custom barrel on it and also completely tune the action like is done on Remington's and Winchester's. My questions is whether or not this action is capable of being trued, lugs lapped, etc and make into an accurate 100-200 yd 1/2" gun. I don't see much said about blueprinting on these types of actions. If it is possible, are there any smith's that have experience with this action and could make it a real shooter? I would like to stay with .338 Federal as I have a 7mm-08 already and want a large .338 rifle without breaking my shoulder when I shoot it. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
