The only way to compare a Sako to a Remchester is that the Sako is svelte compared to the domestics. Owned Remington, Savage, Winchester, and Ruger and they don't compare out of the box.
Sakos might have a crummy synthetic stock but they performed and the stock is the least of my worry and I point it at critters while hunting and they fall over dead. Never have had to worry about accuracy, failure to feed/extract. They work.
