Thread: New Sako for 2014 - 85 Long Range

Changing to an integral Picatinny format would help sales too.

Can you make a wooden stock stable enough for .338 ? The brake looks elegant and perhaps a threaded option would also be worthwhile.

This isn't meant to be a target or tactical rifle. It's a lot lighter than the TRG.

Anyway - it this the only factory hunting rifle available in .338LM ? If so, cool !

It looks like the brake is screwed on.
