I like them all. I have seen some nice walnut on new 85's so there is some still out there.
The biggest difference in handling is between the 85 and the others. The 85's have a classic style stock whereas most of the AV's and the 75's have Monte-Carlo style stocks. I prefer a classic stock myself but still own and shoot several of the older models.
Almost all Sako's tend to shoot very well so any of them should be more than accurate enough to hunt with.
My favorite Sako's for hunting tools are the Finnlites since they are the lightest. Some of the others tend to be on the heavy side.
I think the best advice would be for you to buy any of the above in a caliber you like and enjoy it. But it probably won't be the only one you end up with! ;-) ...............DJ
