I had a few questions about the rifles used in previous films, here is a short film about my Sako 6.5x47 with a brief overview of the rifle, calibre, some (very little) LR shooting, and some hunting. Enjoy!

Great video! Is the new barrel the same contour as the factory? How does it balance in the edge stock? What does it weigh? Thanks Dink

The barrel is factory contour, True-Flite ultra match 1:8". It balances nicely in the EDGE stock, just around the recoil lug with suppressor fitted. Overall weight is at 10lbs fully loaded with suppressor, sling, stockpack, scope etc. It's comfortable to carry all day.
