RE: SAKO rifles BLOW UP!!!
I showed the pictures to my uncle who has been in metal forging for over 40 years hes says he would have to see the pieces of the barrel up close and in person to give an accurate idea of went wrong but from the pictures he could see alot of discoloring in the metal fibers associtated with uneven carbon structure in the steel which could essentially cause the rifle to burst like that and the flutes in the barrel surely did not help any.
