I think he said that there would be minor bedding done, but I don't have my rifle yet to check. If the action fits hand-in-glove with the stock, then I wouldn't worry about bedding.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
Forgot to take a pic of the rifle, will do that tomorrow if I'm not too busy. But here are shots 5-30 for it (first 5 were off target to get initial zero). Starting Bottom left to right, the first 15 shots were from a bench with bipod and just freehanding the buttstock to get the zero dialed in (a 4-5Mph crosswind had me jumping back and forth a little trying to figure out what was wind and what was zero) and season the barrel a bit. The bottom right and top left were prone with a rear bag. When I saw what it could to there I moved over to the 100yd. That wasn't pretty, a gusty 5Mph wind would blow me right anywhere from 0 to 0.7Mrad, so I was kinda spread all over. But I did get a couple of nearly 1" groups when patient enough to match up wind conditions for shots.
The 200yd line was just a reminder of what the wind could do at that distance. I'd shoot at the far left target and get hits on the far right. The vertical was impressively consistent though.
Used FGGM 711B for all.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
Well, here she is. A great big Thank you to Thomas Manners, Jered @ PAI, and Surge for making this build happen for me. I was not able to get into the buy at the time it was open. But luck smiled on me and I was able to pick up the build that Surge commissioned. I had a bit of bad luck with my extractor, But the ten rounds I did manage to take were basically bug holing at 50m.
Gap Desert Camo, OD Barrel threaded for supressor, Falcon 4-14X44.

Nope. But that was my fear. I have to admit. The Falcon scope is well worth the $. I did a side by side comparison of the Falcon and a MK IV 3.5-10. I have to tell you that I could Not tell the difference between the image quality of the two scopes. It does not compare to my USO's and it is Not as bright as Nightforce scopes. But It is as good as my Leupy's.
I'm using a stock pack with lower Manners rings and the eyeball height is working perfect for me. Well at least for ten shots

Coulda sworn I posted these earlier, but I guess I never hit submit...
I'm really liking the Karsten with this setup, and it lets me use Seekins 0.92's so I can push the scope farther forward without any issues of the mag ring contacting the scope base.

I could get away with the 0.820" and still have clearance for the magnification ring. But, you're right... 0.750" would be too low.

If you're using a Falcon 4-14 and the USO base Jered used then only if you move it far enough rearward that the mag ring isn't over the scope base at all. Trust me, I tried it.
The .87 would probably fly, but I don't have any of those laying around to actually try. The .92's provide plenty of clearance, and as a bonus also give enough clearance that you can get the barrel out without removing the scope as well as just enough that you can get the short sunshade off without removing the flip-cap.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
Ok, here is a pic of my Sako.....think I went overboard with the scope (NF 5.5-22x56)!?
Actually, as cool as this rifle is, I think the scope is fitting...and, well, its one that roams from rifle to rifle, so why not.
Also posted are some groups shot with Lapua Club, Federal 510, Federal 410 and FGMM. This rifle really shoots the Fed 510 well but doesnt like to extract the empties! These were shot at 100 yards, off the ground using a bipod with 5-7mph winds. Not bad for breaking it in! But, I bet it can do better if I did my part better.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
Cruikshank, I wouldn't paint anything on your rifle, it looks nice as it is. Is your LOP long enough? I had a spacer system installed on mine, which I will get on Tuesday (I hope). I noticed that only two or three of us added buttstock spacers for a longer LOP.

My Sako 22LR trainer finally arrived, and I have to say that I am very pleased with the design and build quality. I ran an oiled patch through the barrel (a Win 52C rod guide worked fine) and mounted a USO SN-3, now I'm ready to go shooting! The only hitch was cocking the bolt to enable it to slide into the action.
* 23" (I think) Lilja match barrel painted coyote brown (looks like FDE to me)
* Manners T4 stock painted in GAP camo
* 4 flush cups and 1 stud (for bipod)
* Buttstock spacer system (LOP came out well, I am tall)
* USO 20 MOA Picatinny rail (I suggest that USO make these in 30 MOA instead)
* USO 1.8-10x37mm SN-3 with Badger rings
* Harris bipod

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
I took the new rifle out back on my ATV and setup a target in the sage. If the objective was to create a rifle with handling characteristics very similar to a centerfire rifle (think GAP Rock in a McBros A5, for example), then I say, "Mission accomplished." I love shooting the Trainer (it deserves the name)!
Using American Eagle 22LR, there were about 15% FTEs that I had to pull out of the chamber myself. An easy way to do this is to pull the bolt back slightly and push in on the ejector hook with a fingernail, then pull the bolt all the way back. Otherwise, bring some needle-nosed pliers to the range.
I can tell the Trainer is accurate, but I was shooting off the back of my ATV with a bipod, using my fist for a rear support, and need a better setup to test for accuracy. Hopefully I can get to the range in the next couple days.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
got to go out today between the boy's nap and the rain. I got a rough zero with Win superX from walmart. Then I shot ten 5 shot groups with Rem Eley and Fiocchi Sub Sonic I accidentally reversed the labels on the targets so the one labeled Fiocchi is Rem and vice versa. The Eley shot better. I was at about 60 yards with a 2-5 mph steady crosswind from R to L. I am really looking forward to getting somewhere I can stretch out to 100 yards and finding some different types of ammo to shoot with.
Each type of ammo fed fine. I had failure to ejects on the last round of each magazine about 50% of the time. The brass would extract fully from the barrel but not be ejected clear of the chamber. I would have to tip the rifle to the right to let the brass fall out. I am not sure why this is happening. I am cycling the bolt with the same force each time. The mag and spring are not acting on the cartridge any more at this point. I dunno. I don't feel this should be happening, especially at this price point, but it's really not a big deal for me.

I think that is the first USO 1.8-10x37mm SN-3 that I have actually seen on a rifle.
Seems like it will be perfect for the trainer.

This is not from the group buy, but quite similar. This is a Quad Varmint with T4.
- T4 GAP camo (OD, black, desert tan I think. I ordered OD, leaf green, earth brown. This looks great though.)
-Falcon Menace 4-14 FFP
-Sako Optilock low rings with weaver bases
-Rimfire Technologies 20 MOA picatinny rail
-Finnish SAK-silencer
-KMW bolt knob
-Harris BRMS 6-9" (podloc is coming)

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
Here's mine with the S&B mounted on it. The S&B's final resting spot is still at GAP for a rebarrel, but the Sako will get spoiled with it for a while.
This wasnt one of Jarred's builds so I might still skim bed it. Think the barrel needs some black cerakote. It has the Hotrod9mm rail, patriot bolt knob, lilja bull barrel, trigger tuned to 1.5 lbs, karsten cheek piece, tab sling.

Re: MCS-T4 Sako Quad 22 Trainer Pic Thread
I didn't get in on the group buy but have put together a similar critter. My original intent was to put a Lilja barrel on like all the others but the factory barrel is so accurate as is that I'm rethinking that plan (the people at Lilja say the Quad barrels are three months out anyway...). It would look better cosmetically but the existing barrel is fairly impressive in terms of accuracy.
This morning I put another 400 rounds through this and that Lilja barrel would need to be unbelievably accurate to make me swap out the existing barrel. I lined up ten empty 12-gauge shells on a fence 115 yards away and very easily (and quietly) took out each one with my 10-round magazine full of CCI SV's. The rifle is more accurate with WMT or 711B but I hardly think shooting shotgun shells merits costly ammo when the cheap stuff will do.
Anyhow, here's mine as it currently exists, the barrel/action/can will be coated to match the flat-dark-earth stock that UPS delivered from Manners yesterday.
