Dogger,

Thanks for the heads up on that 6.5x55 Sako.

It is basically a black Finnlight, on sale, $400 off. All the internal workings are the same stainless, with the only difference being the receiver and barrel are black.

Been contemplating a 260 Finnlight, but not quite sure having the S-action would be of any advantage for me vs a M-action Swede. Difference weight wise is only 2 or 3 ounces.

That stock could not fit me any better than if it were custom made to my dimensions. Weight wise, it fits my likes very well. Cartridge wise, I think the 6.5x55 makes a better fit than my 243 Sako I recently sold for funds to pursue a 6.5 something else Sako. I may just pounce on this one. Optilock Ringmounts and a fixed LEU 6x could very well be what the doctor ordered.
