Barrels aren't too hard to find. If you want a TRG action, you're going to have to buy a TRG.

Re: need to find sako or tikka action

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
Why not buy it complete.
If the barrellength on the original gun is ok with you, it will shoot more than good enough for all purposes except benchrest.
They are really amazingly good, also the Tikka T3 barrels.

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
what original gun? on the website it said, Overall length without muzzle brake in 300 win mag.
TRG-42 20” barrel @ TRG-42 27” barrel
i just want the 27" with the muzzle brake. my luck it will only fit the trg action thread pitch. wish i could find tikka tactical in 24 inch barrel then just restock it. the mcmillan stock just fits me better, im a short fat guy. local gun shop said he could only order one with 20" barrel

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
Just buy a regular T3 then re-barrel and restock it. There's no diff in the t3 light action vs the tactical or varmint. Or find a trg-s in 300 and restock with a a-5. Keeping in mind you have to use the McMillan bm when you go that route.

Re: need to find sako or tikka action

. i have seen a used one at the local gun shop not in 300win mag. it was in 338 fed and he wanted $499. he said a guy had it for 4 weeks & shot it 5 times. he came back said he wanted to sell it. it probably kicked the living shit out of him
. {Keeping in mind you have to use the McMillan bm when you go that route} McMillan bm? what do you mean?

Re: need to find sako or tikka action

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
Sako TRG-S rifles can be found for as little as 4-500 COMPLETE sometimes. As worthless as Gander Mountain is, I have seen a couple TRG-Ss in .30-378 for that cheap. Shitcan the stock and barrel and you have a NICE action for a build.

JB's a smart guy, and a first class guy to do business with, I haven't talked to him in years, but every dealing I've had was perfect, plus he KNOWS a lot about SAKO's.

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
If you go with a trg-s with a McMillan A-5 you have to run their (bm) bottom metal. It is nice, but pushes the cost up.
Or you could go with a Manners or McMillan for the t3 and run CDI bm. I'll have to get some new pictures of that one.

Re: need to find sako or tikka action
thats nice, what barrel did u use? i was thinking of using my 308 barrel but want to keep it for my m40a1 that i hope to do sometime this century
useing it would keep the cost down a little but it would have to be 308 because its 1 in 12. to bad its not 1 in 11 thats what the trg barrel is on the website. guess i have one built like a trg with the trg brake
