The Sako A7 Tecomate is without question the best factory rifle on the market. It is essentially a custom gun at production prices. The rifle is accurate, well-balanced, good looking, and loaded with custom features, including an awesome trigger and safety assembly, a full-length aluminum bedding system, one of the best designed and most functional stocks on the market, the recoil-taming Pachmayr Decelerator(r) Recoil Pad, and a custom-grade fluted barrel. No wonder it is guaranteed to shoot 1-inch or less 3-shot groups! When paired with the low profile Leupold VX-3L 4.5-14x50mm scope mounted on low Leupold Weaver-type rings, you have a fast-pointing combination with solid cheek-to-stock weld that makes the rifle a virtual extension of the shooter. Chambered for the powerful, flat-shooting .270 WSM and .300 WSM, the Sako A7 Tecomate lives up to it claim as the "Ultimate Whitetail Rifle" and is, in fact, the ideal rifle for anything in North America and African plains game. You can check out www.tecomate.com for more info or questions on the rifle.

I certainly applaud David Morris for choosing Sako. I can also applaud Sako for making what is truly a custom rifle at a production price. I love my Sako 85 Finnlight in 300 WSM.
It is the last hunting rifle I will buy. If I could ever get it back from McMillan I aim to become quite proficient with it.

The 280 Remington is overbore.

270WSM is a good caliber if you think magnums are your thing. The stock isn't bad, but does it have any checkering to aid grip? How about the hard as heck cock on open bolt like the other A7's? It's a great marketing tool for Sako and David Morris's Bucks of Tecomate. I've got a couple of Tikka's and Brownings that shoot as good, fit and finsish excellent, and pretty darn sure I didn't pay the extra to cover all the marketing hype.

I shared a camp with him this past season and he had the rifle in question. I personally liked it. I dont know if its any better that what I already have but it was sure a nice rifle. I understand that these types of advertiesments get old but I doubt very seriously that David is the one on here pimping them. He has a much larger audience to sell to on TV. Here is is 178" CO buck from this past season. He made a hell of a shot on this buck...

OTOH, it may be just a troll looking for some attention. I remember speaking with Ed Weatherby on this site just prior to his adopting Weatherby Nation for his interests. He was "lurking" in the late evening asking questions and advice. He also visited the Nosler forum.

I like Sako rifles...a lot. Until very recently I had an A7 that absolutely performed in every sense of the word last year in the wilds of Idaho.
Having said that, Sako took a page out of Remington's book when they made the first generation A7...
(A) Almost twice as expensive and relabeled it "Tecomate" (think "Alaskan" Ti).
(B) heavier (like the "Alaskan Ti as opposed to 1st generation Ti).
(C) added unnecessary flutes (Again...think "Alaskan" Ti).
With all this new "marketing", I can see why they needed to double the price.
