Which Limbsaver for Sako Finnlite?

[Deep]

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows which part number of limbsaver fits the Sako 85 Finnlite model rifles?
I'm interested in both the screw-on and the slip on type pads. So if anyone knows which part numbers work, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

Part #10011, same one as T3 and Sako model 75. I put a few on the model 85's.

Yep, I just put the pre-fit one for the Tikka on my Sako 85 finnlight. Pretty well a perfect fit.

Thanks for the info.
Any opinions on the new Airtech model vs the classic? I can get them both for about the same price it seems.

I was curious about the new airtech ones too but couldn't find them in stock anywhere in Canada so can't help you there. If you get the airtech let us know how it compares.

Are the pads on the finnlites as bad as the ones on the T3's?

could there be such a thing LOL
no I know Browning A bolt sucks, Winchester red lever gun pads suck and T3 origies suck. the limbsaver I got is a dream...
I didn't put it on, but my friend had one installed on hes 9.3, I have shot a 9.3 with and without, certainly a difference for sharp final push, but in the light kickers, limbsaver all day!

I'm wondering if it will GUM up like a Remington SPS pad does after a few yrs??

for the slip on they said on the box for the tikka most of the models need a small but by experience i will say a medium will work also.

good luck

no the limbsaver slip on i have on a few rifles (need a little bigger LOP ...) they whitstand the recoil and are aging pretty well.

Got the airtech model (Part # 10813) and tried it on yesterday at the range. Fits great on the Finnlite, and for sure a noticeable difference between the stock pad and this one. I have not tried standard limbsaver pads, but the airtech one seems good to me.
