OC,
What does your stock weight? and what does the rifle weight with the scope on it. I'm betting it'll be lighter than mine due to the shorter action, and slightly smaller stock.
NICE rig!!!
Congrats.

I tried to email McMillan months ago about them making a stock for my 85, got no response. Is it possible for them to make me a stock without having my barreled action (I'm up here in Canada...)

Nope they require the barreled action for the Sako 85.
Plus you have to send them the bedding block

Ordered mine in January. That might give you some idea on your remaining wait.

Yeah.
Was hoping that I'd have it in plenty of time to get it bedded, pick a load, practice with it, and go hunting this year. But I'm not so sure now.

I ordered mine here as well.
I received an e-mail from Terah last Tuesday saying the stock was ready and she had released it to ship.
I'm hoping to get it any day. How do you guys ship, UPS?

O.K. That's what I figured. If it was released on Tuesday, I imagine it'll be here any time.

I have a Sako Classic stock with a Remington action. I like the little tweaks of the stock. The cast off and the nice grip make it feel just right to me.
I needed low rings to get my cheek and the rifle to feel really good. The first scope was mounted higher. The low rings just made the package. It is my go to gun.
