I love my Sako. Good out to 300m with 55 grain game kings. Even shot a fallow buck and 4 or 5 sika stags with it, most recently a scraggy 6 pointer at 330m to the shoulder, dropped and didn't move....

Yes, found the 22.250 ideal for fallow. 1:10 twist Ruger American, 69gr TMK. Way better than a 223, but not blasting big holes in them like 243, 6.5', 308, 270's. No recall so can call your shots...

May I ask what is the problem with 30mm tube? It usually would not affect mounting height because your objective glass will be larger than 30mm anyway. 30mm tube in the middle section of the scope...

Yeah if you were purely a bush hunter you wouldn’t choose one. But they are an inch shorter than a 3-15 or 3-18 and and don’t have the Hubble-like bulkiness of a 50 or 56mm objective. I ran a 2-7x33...

If you mount too low then your will see the end of your barrel/suppresser in your site picture which I find really annoying. Something to consider.
