    Eh, doesn't the Sako Quad have separate barrels rather than multi-chambering capability?

    Correct.
    I don't think there's anything that'll chamber both (properly); the cartridges are of different dimensions, after all.

    Apparently, there is a bodge of some sort involving firing LR rounds through a cut down WMR case, but I'm not entirely sure of it's efficacy, so I'll just leave it at that.

    none of the barrels i have are marked so until they are put with the rest of the gun they can define the "pipe"
