opening bolt face on Sako L461

[glenn gates]

I have a Sako mini with the .223 bolt face I'd like to open to ppc size. Will any changes be needed to extractor or other parts?
Thanks,
Glenn

you may be better to find a L579. I have a friend that may sell one.

It won't work, the extractor sits too low.

Sako made some L461'S in the late 80's in the PPC bolt face and you are saying it will not work?????

The guy with the L579 will sell the action for $400.

No thank you on the 579. Looking to use what I have.
