I agree with you that Sako makes faulty products just like everyone else but many guy's think just because they've had several and their particular rifles have lived up to expectations that Sako rifles are bullet proof and every one that leaves the factory is the best rifle ever, I can say this all Sako rifles don't live up to the 5 shot MOA guarantee as I have had a few that would not, that being said I am still a big Sako fan and I think it's a shame that a shabby outfit like Beretta owns such a fine rifle maker...............Hb
