Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds McMillan Sako 85M Hunter's Edge

SAKO 85 HUNTER – Sako 85M SKU: #6555 Hunter's Edge in Gap transition camo. The barrel contour is for a standard sporter. Sako "M" action length. I've had both a .30-06 and .270 in it.

Bought this last year and mounted an action up and took 'er hunting. I have a McSwirly which I've decided I prefer so I want to sell this Edge and get another Mcswirly.

Great condition - there is a small defect (4th pic) inside where the bolt cut-out is. You cannot see it when the action is mounted and I didn't notice it 'til just now while taking pictures.

$550 shipped.

What size action is this for?

Sako "M" action length. I've had both a .30-06 and .270 in it.

PMs returned - it has a 13.5" LOP and the L shaped 1.5" recoil lug.

Saturday evening look.

I thought McMillan had to fit these to your specific action?

I believe that use to be the case, as a matter of fact, I know that used to be the case. But now you can buy 'em fully inletted drop in ready.

How much lighter is it over the factory stock?

More important than weight, to me anyways, is the grip and handling of the stock. I've never been a fan of the Sako Soft Touch stocks.

For reference - 4 Sako 85M stocks all weighed on the cheap digital scale.

In order heaviest to lightest - Sako85 Hunter, McMillan standard, Sako Finnlight ST, McMillan Edge

Weighs 1lb 9.7oz by the digital kitchen scale

I'm down to 1 Sako 85M, and 3 stocks.

Get ya' one without the wait and save yourself money to boot. Don't be shy about throwing me an offer via PM. The worst I can say is, no.

Up for the PM crowd with reduced price - $525 shipped.

Makes me want to go out and buy a Sako 85M. Nice stock.

Yeah, it's makin' me want to too.
