Anybody have an opinion of Sako 75 Big Game Deluxe?

Quality? Value for money?

Nice looking rifle in a great cartridge.
Listed only as a .416 Rem.Mag. in Walnut/Blue.
$2,175.00

I own many Sako rifles, and have nothing but praise for them.

I own two Sako rifles that fit like a glove and are very accurate but they've been glass bedded and tuned by a master gunsmith who also did a friends 300wm.My friend put 3 bullets in a .308 hole on his target.

I have a 75 Deluxe in .340 Wby. (it was a factory chambering for a while) and I've been really happy with it. It's not as accurate as some Sako's I've had but it's acceptable.

They sure look good, feel good (I'm a sucker for a palm swell) and it's always fed really well (and holds 4 down!).

i have to sako 75 rifles,one 7mm.rem.mag and one 416 rem.mag(big game deluxe)all 416 are custom shop rifles. they are glassbedded with an additional recoillug.they allso have controlled round feed(all the other 75`s have push feed)my only concern about the 416 is the scopemount,i broke 2 of the new sako optilock qr.after just 20 rounds,i am now using a german made swingmount(recknagel eramatic)and that is working grate.other than that i must say i am very pleased....sorry for my bad writing,i do not use the english landuage very often...

Kyler, that is due to the flinch you get from shooting that darn "kick like a mule" rifle.


By the way, on a real estate note, Ngagi's girlfriend (don't tell her husband) is driving up the price in the neighborhood. This property is about a block away from us (1.5 blocks from SB & JJ)
