I've got a TI takeoff on my 222 mag and find it handles great for just about anything I use it for. My main varmint rifle of late wears a factory BDL walnut stock like Ingwe likes with the ribbon checkering. I have High Techs on a couple and a Brown Precision waiting in the wings for an action to come along. I like the same style stocks on my varmint rifles that I use on my big game guns that way all of my rifles just handle like rifles, I can pick up any of them and they are really similar. I don't hunt colony critters since we don't have any where I live, but that is the only place I could see myself having a "heavy" styled stock with a wide forend.
If you like the Sako pattern I'd say go for it, it's a little bulky for my tastes but it is certainly a quality unit being from McMillan.
