Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Sako Pic thread....

Great topic and pics guys.

My first ever new rifle ordered in 1997 - Sako m75ss 300WM with Leupold Vari-X III 3.5-10x40 scope and the factory barrel fluted and telfon coated the flutes and polished the rest of the barrel by my gusmith. Shoots 180gr Accubond reloads under 0.4" groups with RL-22.



Then the rifle bug bit in 2005. Bought a few Tikka T3 270WSM's-the Sako m75 Greywolf wasnot out yet. In May of 2006, bought a Sako m75ss 243 and mounted a VX2 4-12x40 LRD scope. Used the excuse for a predator rifle that our yet born child (happened to be a boy born 1 month later) would need a rifle.


In 2007, a Sako m75 Greywolf 300WSM with a Leupold VX3 4.5-14x40 BC reticle.


In March 2008, a used mint Sako m75ss 22-250 (for my other newborn boy the month prior). Placed a eupold Vari-X III 6.5-20x40AO scope that was a safe queen for a long time.
I see I have no pics of this one. Oh well looks like my 300WM and 243. I prefer the grey stock with black rubber inlays.


In June 2008 I bought a new Sako m75 Greywolf 25-06, replaced the barrel and some other work. Built a 338-06 Ackley Improved. Has a Leupold VX3 3.5-10x40 scope with the new Sako Optilock Ringmounts.





In the future I want to buy a Sako m75ss or Greywolf 270WSM. If in the ss model I may replace the stock with a MacMillan I have already picked out (middle one).

I also want to do another project rifle off a Sako m75 rifle...a 330 Dakota has me interested, maybe a 280AI.
