Anyone have recommendations for a gunsmith who does good barrel work, particularly when it comes to quarter ribs and folding leaf sites? Also, the individual would be able to regulate the sites.
I recently purchased a Sako in 458 Win Mag and wish to have this work done.

Thanks for any and all suggesstions.

Go to the ACGG site and find out which members are doing this work.

Heineke Johnson, J

McFarland, S Nelson
Norin Simillion
Smith, A Stiles

Two that post here regularly are Mr. Wiebe and Mr. Wisner.

Kevin,
Some of those do that work and some of them are stockmakers. Some are not on your list.

Call Wayne at AHR (American Hunting Rifles). He stocks them, installs them, and regulates them...very reasonable time and cost.

That list was taken from the ACGG site. If it is incorrect, it is because the ACGG does not effectively police their site (which would not surprise me).
