M70 Ultimate Shadow .300WSM
Dear all

I am considering buying a M70 Ultimate Shadow in .300 WSM but am in two minds wether to wait for the Sako 85 Stainless Syn to hit UK shores and buy one of them instead. My question is what kind of accuracy can i expect from the M70 in 300 WSM and has anyone got any target pics or measured groups they would be happy to share of their M70's performance in this calibre?

Many thanks

I would wait for the Sako myself.

No doubt, Sako or Tikka.

I'd buy the M70 Winchester.

You should expect MOA accuracy. Any rifle can have a problem however.

Model 70, Sako's are for Metro-Sexual's

A pushfeed winchester? No ways - the Sako 85 will be sooo much smoother, and more accurate.

Also Sako's QC is consistent. Winchester,s was anything but.

Having said that though I still love the model 70 crfs. But they need sorting out.
