Yes I have heard Beretta USA is not the best to deal with. I also think it's stupid that they don't import certain rifles and calibers, for instance they (Beretta USA) doesnt import any Tikka or Sako in .260 rem where as they do in Australia. I have email Beretta USA (them not knowing i didnt...

What goes well in one rifles (with the BOSS System) will probably shoot different or not as good in another. A friend bought a rifle with the BOSS System (Muzzle Brake) on it and this video put out by Browning was a big help tuning it to the correct hand load...

Sako's and Tikka's consistently shoot better than most factory production rifles and with the accuracy guarantee they give they put their money where their mouth is (so to speak). Sako and Tikka's Accuracy Guarantee is Tikka's with a sporter weight barrel are 3 shots 1" group with hunting ammo...

+1 IMO he should get an apology a refund plus 2 years interest (whatever the going rate is in the USA) for a term deposit for the total of the money the Smith had. Rastaman the problem you have suffered is not confined to Smiths in the USA over here in Australia we have a number ofGun Smiths...

You think that's bad this is the norm here in Australia. The greedy importers/distributors shaft us every chance they get. We pay on average twice as much (100%) more than what you do for ammo and reloading components, reloading tools, shooting equipment etc and around 75% more for rifles. It...

No you wouldn't get extra barrel life. Exactly what rounds are you looking at? Some rounds will give similar performance to each other but have better barrel life over the other.

What caliber (round) are you looking at, how far do you want to shoot and what are you doing (shooting) with it?

The 338Edge will run with the 338LM but if you are only shooting up to 925 yards I would honestly look no further than a 7mmWSM, or even one of the other 7mm short mags (belt less). The 7mmWSM shooting high BC bullets stays supersonic up to around 1400 yards plus. There is a couple of...

For a dedicated "Hunting Rifle" look no further than the Sako 85 Finnlight and the next on the list would be the 85 Synthetic Stainless. If you are a wood stock guy look at the 85 Stainless Hunter or the 85 Stainless Laminate Hunter. For a cheaper Sako alternative you could look at the Sako A7...

All my Sako's and Tikka's have shoot well under MOA with just about all ammo I have put through it including the cheap stuff. A number of companies sell aftermarket Recoil Lugs for the Tikka (ie: Stainless and Titanium) from as little as ($25-$30 ea) and an upgraded Recoil Lug is really only...

I own 2 Sako's (TRG22 in 308 and an 85 Stainless Varmint in .260) as well as 5 Tikka T3's (2 x Stainless Varmints in .223 and .260, a Stainless Lite in .308, a Stainless Hunter in 6.5x55, a Sporter in .308 and I have a Stainless Hunter Fluted in .204 on order). Sako's and Tikka's are very...

The Fierce rifles are nice but the action is an exact copy of the Sako 85 right down to the trigger and magazine. The only thing that's different is they have omitted the Sako Tapered Dovetail and it takes Remington 700 bases (which is the same as the Howa/Weatherby Vanguard). I'm all for new...
