Very nice collection and some cool classic models posted thus far. I started with Tikka (poor man's sako) and was impressed enough with function and accuracy that I stepped up to a Sako Grey Wolf 75 in 7mm-08 and this 85 SS 260 bedded in a Kevlar stock.

I'm real close to pulling the trigger on a Sako Bavarian carbine. I'm thinking .308Win. I just need to sell a few that don't excite me anymore. Terry
