[QUOTE="Black Tail Hunter, post: 1704935, member: 59604"] I shoot a 7.82 Warbird and love the performance and consistency i get with the round. 185g Berger VLD with 3400 fps at the muzzle. I am by no means wealthy and could never afford a Lazzeroni signature gun, so I bought the Sako M995 version that John built years ago to offer a lower cost alternative. Yes brass is expensive, that is why i keep my eye out for good used brass on this site and gunbroker. You can find brass for 1.50-2.00 ea which makes it more affordable. Usually it is once fired, and after you anneal it usually lasts quite a while. Add a good muzzle brake or suppressor and you are in business with a mild shooting rifle that performs well against most anything out there. When i confirmed zero last fall before hunting season, the rifle shot 1.25" at 300 yds which is by far the most accurate rifle in my safe. i was unimpressed with the stock that Sako put on these rifles and they were problematic so I added a really nice Macmillan stock which was a huge improvement, the stock cost me 2/3 what i paid for the rifle but it was a good investment. I like shooting a hot rod rifle cartridge that a lot of people have never heard of, but thats just me. [ATTACH=full]147956[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
