Shootem, I hate that you are having this issue with rifle. I had not heard of the 85 ejection issue until recently. I likely would not have purchased the rifle, and thus would not have passed it on to you, had I known about this problem.
Tech this is NOT your problem. You played no role in it. You never tried the rifle and neither of us had any reason to suspect a new Sako wouldn't eject cartridges properly. Every detail of the purchase was just as advertised and discussed. Rifle and scope were new in the box. The problem lies with Beretta/Sako and their willingness to continue selling rifles that have a significant incidence of failure. I appreciate your concern but absolutely do not blame you in any way whatsoever. But if you still have the 25-06 you might want to run some empties thru it. Best to you. MC
