[QUOTE="martinakl, post: 2744668, member: 74115"] Check out Eurooptic.com if you want a deal on one: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.eurooptic.com/Sako-S20-Hunter-Rifles.aspx?q=NjYwZGE1YTgtMGJlOC00OTdiLWIzMDAtYjc4ZjAwYTE1ZTcy_MQ&o=1&p=1&i=48&d=48[/URL] [LIST] [*]6.5CM is $1099.00 [*]270 is $1,199.00 [*]308 is $1,299.00 [*]6.5 PRC is $1,099.00 - Not mentioned in your post but maybe worth a look? [/LIST] I have a S20 Precision in 300 Win Mag. I got it when they first came out. They're all the same size actions. Just like a tikka, they're all long actions. Bolt stop and magazine differences is only difference in short action vs. long action. They're super smooth, just like all SAKO/Tikka. They are a three lug action, so bolt lift is short and shouldn't interfere with scope mounting. They're not lightweight but they're not heavy. BUT, for a chassis based rifle system, I'd say they are light weight. There's no MOA built into the built-in rail. That's a head scratcher... But, they have a 20 MOA base you can buy. It's a very, very nice mount (I have one). The way you can adjust ring spacing on the mount is a neat feature (especially if you run a compact scope). Accuracy is great on mine. I haven't totally settled on a load yet. I was waiting until I could get enough Berger 215's to see what I can do with them. I have them but it's winter and I just don't trust myself to do load development when I'm shivering. The Berger 230's OTMs shot amazingly well. I coulda, woulda, shoulda just stuck with those and moved on. [/QUOTE]
