    I've recently bought a Sako Finnfire 2, which has a wood stock and is identical to a quad except the barrel change screw has been covered over. It's not really a beautiful rifle, just nice to use and does the job without thinking about it.
    With plastic trigger guard, magazine and bolt shroud, its build philosophy is more like the Sako A7 or Tikka than the Sako 85. For unknown reason, the bolt release is on the other side too.
    Like Gillie, I've found a lot of ammo gives vertical strung out groups. Eley Match (black), old Tenex and R50 give circular groups and are acceptable at 50m. (under 1MOA). Several other brands like orange RWS Target, Eley Subsonic (green, hollowpoint) and the 42 Gr Winc Subsonic shoot OK at 25 yd but not at 50.
    However, my scores on target are now consistently better than I could get with the old well polished JW15, accurate as it was.

    Does anyone know where you can get aftermarket metal bits for the Finnfire / Quad ?
