[QUOTE="long ranger, post: 1121, member: 800"] I have to agree with Nodak 60 foot pounds is far too much torque as is 60 inch pounds. Most factory stocks require about 20 to 30 inch pounds of torque. I would wonder about his loads as well as headspaceing. Sako builds a great product but still can have problems as any other manufacturer can. I would have the action checked for specification the consider having a recoil lug dovetailed into the barrel just ahead of the bump in the action that Sako claims is an adequate lug ,then have the stock pillar bedded, with proper torque applied to the action screws. I realize that torqueing a slot headed screw is not easy, the good folks at Brownells sell a set of allen key type replacement screws for under $10.00 that make torque easy [/QUOTE]
