Tikka T3, Sako A7 Action Barrel Threads Same?

[lewwetzel]

For a barrel swap? Reason I ask: Criterion is now making barrels for Tikka (barrel nut type a la Rem-age.) Wondering if a barrel would thread onto the similar A7 action, as I believe the only difference between the two is in the bolt/lugs.
I'll ask Criterion (they farm these out), but want another opinion. Thanks!

Bumping this since I'd like to swap my 7RM barrel for a 7saum to be able to feed 180eldm's from the magazine.

Not really sure why you need a nut. I got a prefit done for my t3 with no nut headspace was perfect.
