The Sako Carbonlight would be quite good in Grendel.
potential problem are:
Action strength rated for 223 but not necessarily 50% more powder like the Grendel.
Can the bolt face be opened out enough and will it feed ?
The barrel needs to be shortened from 18" to 16" but its fluted so would look awful.
Darned expensive - a gun for the 1%
I have an old Sako Vixen but ones made for PPC cases are uncommon.
Mechanically the 85 action is streets ahead in many features.
