However I needed to add a decent recoil pad to the 101 and shorten the LOP of the stock. [The 100 is about a grand cheaper than the 101 the 202, 404 etc. are high end beautiful rifles]

4 years old I know but fairly sure sakos are not factory bedded the 100 and the m18 are a disgrace

My experience was that the M18 is one of the most solid and reliable value for money rifles around. Excellent trigger, works flawlessly, V block bedding. Good solid stock. My 6.5prc was very accurate too. If I wanted a bash around rifle for on a quad or suchlike its what I would have.
