New Gun Purchase

[mackillan]

I had a friend pick me up a Sako 85 grey wolf stainless laminate at the Lloyd gun show. I cant say what caliber as the sensitive boys may get peeved. Action is smooth as butter.

 

[220Swifty]

PM Me and i will say the caliber for you

 

[Cummins4x4]

I'm betting it's a 300WSM and your going to AI it!! Nice rifle BTW.

 

[444shooter]

My wager is a 7mm something

 

[pharaoh2]

After all the Ultramag and STW threads, obvioulsly that chambering is a no brainer. He got a .338 Federal of course.

What ever it is, it’s a excellent rifle...

a friend of mine has one in 30-06..it`s been his go-to rifle for almost everything for two years now...can`t go wrong with the Sako Greywolf

Wasted your money...should have got a Cooper

 

[mackillan]

Does a Cooper have a detachable clip? I believe Coopers are more expensive. I got a great deal is why I jumped at it.

I just bought a new Sako 85 Gray Wolf in 22-250 from Battle River Sports in Stettler, Alberta it should be here in a couple of days.

I saw it while I was there but I had just bought a 50th anniversary Rem 700 LSS in 280 Rem a couple days before and had a new to me T/C Contender carbine in 375 Win in the mail so decided that I couldn't afford another gun right then but when I got home I couldn't stop thinking about it so I called back.

He gave me such a good deal that I couldn't turn it down.

I'm thinking you made a good choice with whatever caliber you bought...

Yes the coopers have a detachable mag. Yes they are more expensive, but not by much. Sako Alberta said the excalibers are around $2100, the wooden classics are just under $2000. Cooper is not chambering magnum cartridges, probably a bummer for you.

I eventually would like a cooper .204. Clay is a great guy to deal with. I bougt a CZ .204 for gopher hunting off him and am very very pleased. I do like the smoothness of the sako action and need a detachable mag for hunting

I bet your on your favourite German translating forum starting a thread asking what "warum" is, instead of just googling it .

She is a beauty. 7mm Rem Mag. I may use it if can get in on a sheep hunt. It wont be perfect but will have to do for bear defense.
