I read an article a while ago with a test on the new Sako 85.
It was before the rifle was released for sale and the test rifle was a late prototype.
There were some problems with the ejection angle. The ejected cases kept hitting the side turret even though it was a low non-target turret.
It also had rough trigger release, not the usual Sako breaking-glass trigger.
How are the actual factory rifles now?
I am considering an 85 Varmint .308Win.
Any experience with the Varmint model?
