flyboy - I can't speak for the Tikka, but Sako uses a cheesy dovetail in the bottom of the action that mates with a small metal bar that protrudes from the stock.

Glock24, thank you, that is exactly what I needed. As for the Tikka, it's exactly the same as the Sako.

Hillbilly,
When I rebarreled my Tikka 300WM, I had the receiver faced and a Tubbs recoil lug installed. This rifle shoots night and day compared to when I first purchased it. I used to have problems like odd flyers, POI changes, etc. Now it is rock solid.
Old picture, but you get the idea:
I'd recommend that anyone with a Tikka from .270 up pillar/skim bed and consider doing something to improve the recoil lug issue.

My Tikka shoots very well, it's just time to move on from .308. That's a great looking rifle, I hope you got rid of that factory stock.
Good to see all, thanks very much.
