I have it the wrong way around, I had a bad night last night and found myself in a bit of pain so went loading 20 tac ammo in the garage this morning at 0400
Sako's A1 action is actually a lot smaller than it's successor the S491, especially in diameter and even in length. All of the S series actions are the same diameter, just different lengths to accomadate the longer chamberings offered, ie S491, S591, and S691. The S491 also has a round removeable recoil lug among the other differences compared to a integral lug on the earlier L and A series actions. I don't feel one is more accurate than the other, some say the thicker S series is stronger. I own 3 S491's, 2 - 17Rems and a 223 and a A1 in 6PPC, serial number B86X. As for which is more desireable I like the smaller A1 series, you can't go worng with either and unless you paid full retail value you'll never lose any money on it.
