I am not to much a fan of the newer 85 but have owned an L61 and a 75(which is a great gun).ĭoes Sako supply mounts with the gun? He acquired this gun with these mounts, so I'm not sure if they came with the rifle or not, but they will pretty much fit only very long scopes. I would say they run about average for a wood stocked gun for the longer action Finnbear. Many aftermarket ring makers have sets to fit for less the Optilock tends to be the standard for accuracy and reliability.Īt around 7 1/2 lbs. Most are in the $80 range.a few specialty ring sets do run more but that would be the exception. The Sako Optilock system they use has many ring sets availible for distance between rings. Not my cup of tea when one can get scores of different mounts for most other guns. They do have some offset rings available, but the price tag is something like $150 for them. I like the integral mounting system they have, but don't understand why the distance needs to be so wide. Too wide of a distance between the rings to fit many scopes. What I didn't like the most about it was the Sako scope mounts. Accuracy was fine, but lots of guns out there these days that shoot outstanding for a lot less money. Nice gun, nice wood, but surely wouldn't spend the money for a brand new one. My uncle acquired a used but unfired Sako Finnbear last year. Ask for a quote as he lists MSRP and often has some room to move.įor shots from 500 to 1000 yds I think you will find both the Sako and the Blaser will be equally matched. I can highly recommend this dealer as you are going to want some serious optics to take advantage of the 338 Lapua ballistics.He's in PA and has MANY satisfied customers.I have been buying from him for 10+ years and he is hard to beat for pricing for both the rifle you are looking for and some glass for on top. Also you should then be considering a Blaser LRS2.Īt about the same price you then have the option of adding a barrel to change calibers (308 Win or 300win).The Blaser platform allows for a switch barrel using the same trigger and bolt assembly,they are VERY accurate (I have a hunting version of the same make,R93) The price is pretty high im just wondering is it worth it.Īccurate as can be IF you require a tactical rifle. Im looking more in to the sako trg-42 338 cal.
