Thread: Advise re Finnlight

Hi Guys

I currently have a Sako 75 in 243. Lots I love about it, fits me really well and shoots better than me. Stock is a bit worn, normal scratches but rubber inserts in good shape. On the downside it is a tad on the heavy side for carting round, but its weight helps me shoot it well.

Sooooooo...I popped into H and F and tried a Finnlight. Lots to like, felt good, pointed well, its a sako! Weight seemed a lot less than the 75. LOP seemed a bit shorter than the 75, palm swell not as prominent either.

Before my 75 I owned a Remington Model 7 in 7mm08. I liked the weight but I did not like its accuray, also it did not fit me as well as the 75.

I have never shot with a can, thinking the extra weight on a Finnlight wont kill me, and may help with accuracy. If i decide to change I am thinking 308.

I am going to try them side by side to see if that helps clarify my thinking, thought I would ask here and see if any body had any thoughts? Anything I should be thinking about?

Cheers

Dino
