Thread: Burris eliminator on a sako

They do a Z3 4x12x50 with a balistic turret about $1600 . and a z5 3.5x18x44 for about $2000. this is NZ pricing.None in stock but next shipment about 2 weeks away. Does he get to shoot much in Aus?
Balistic reticles work just fine out to 450ishyds and can be faster than dialing, yes you have to think a little and that may be a problem for him if he spends to much time in Aus.You can write the values on the inside of a flipup cover. Forget the "must be numbers ending in 2 zeros.Deer dont stand at 100yd intervals,just work out what the values are on the power setting you want ,its pretty simple.

Actually if you want to see a z3 4-12x50 with TDS set up as above theres one at home.

Cheers sneeze, Im trying to steer him in that direction but its up to him really. Its his coin

The Burris XTB-Sako dovetail mounts look as if they still need tapping.

and so does the Roedale rail, which also seems to be held together by screws and friction.

You'd think someone would make a rail that fits on by lock screw the same as a sako or leupold base. Or the base could be shaped like a picatinny rail on top instead of having a hole to twist and fit the ring into. Perhaps you could tap and screw (or weld) a piece of picatinny rail onto an optilock base ? Could be hard to get it straight. Cost would have to be no object

Cheers Bagheera. looks like he is going to jump some hoops and try and get his aus FAL and then he can play with it over there as well and it wont be cluttering up my safe

I have a Roedale Precision Sako Rail for sale? 20MOA, aluminium.

Is that how you mount the S&B on your Finnlite ?

What do you think of it ?

Oh, I have a custom rail screwed to my action now, it seems a bit more solid.


The Roedale rail works fine though.

So whats the final stoemry on this rifle?

Think he is looking at a 6500 bushnel. He is going to get aus FAL so I wont see it till he comes back for a hunt

Gimp, does that Roedale rail bear down onto the lower flats like the optilock (A below) or onto the very top of the receiver like a conventional ringmount (C) ?

I'd have to say "c"

Burris make a base designed for this scope and this rifle - "M77 Laserscope mount" serial code 410992. Get your nearest dealer to contact Beretta and you'll have it in your hands in a couple of days.
