Does anyone have opinions regarding the Lazzeroni/Sako rifles and calibers. They sell a Sako TRG-S in 7.21 Firebird for $949 (minus scope, rings, etc.). Specs on the round are as follows: Velocity on the 7mm 140 Gr. round is 3,668 fps from a 26" barrel. Velocity on the 7mm 160Gr. round is 3,455 fps from a 26" barrel. This seems like pretty good balistics from a 7mm. How does it compare to the new 7mm Ultra Mag? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Shark Bait | ||

Jim, Thanks for the info. I know that I don't realistically need anything with the sort of balistics the Lazzeroni or for that matter the 7mm Ultra Mag claims, however as one firearm afficianado to another, there is always another firearm that I want. Why not a very flat shooting 7mm? Oh, and it wouldn't be for varmints, but this forum seems to be very active and likes to talk about flat shooting cartridges, so I'd thought I'd ask. I'd prefer to use my old trusty .22-250 on varmints. Any way, if anyone has any additional comments on the Lazzeroni/Sako, I'd welcome it. Good Shooting! | |||

Shark Bait, The 7mm Lazerroni would be the counterpart of a 7mm/378 or a 416 Rigby Improved necked down to the 7mm. If all else was equal, they would be about 100 f/s faster than the same caliber on the Ultra case. Mike | |||

I have two Lazzeroni rifles and they get the velocities claimed in the ads...both of mine (a .375 and a .300) are accurate in the extreme. They are not inexpensive to shoot as the brass runs right a $2 each...dies are also custom and run about $100. | |||
