Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Tikka/Sako - tough backcountry rifle

I've had many Tikka's and they all shot very well. I just bought my first Sako 85 Classic in .270Win. and a Sako Brown Bear in 375 H&H. Love 'em both so far. Heavier? Yes but the wood to metal fit is impeccable and the accuracy is very good.
The Tikka T3 is strictly a "tool". The Classic and Brown Bear have "heart and soul" with their good looks.
I am going to make these my "tough backcountry" rifles and create memories with each hunt. Here are a couple pics from the Classic 85.

I've got Opti-Locks on both and I find them to be easy to work with. Alaska will be testing the Brown Bear in 65 days.
