[QUOTE="emp1953, post: 2662733, member: 71817"] I've seen claims that the rifle doesn't carry well for them. I have two, one with wood stock and one with composite. The composite just feels wrong when I sling it over my shoulder, even cross sholder. The wood stock feels perfect. I tried swapping the two stocks and found they are not interchangeable, probably because one is a long action and the other a short action. I laid them out and noticed the sling studs were positioned differently. The wood had the rear stud closer to the butt plate than did the composite, plus the composite front stud a tad further forward. This changes the balance point of the rifle when hanging by the sling. Sako should be able to correct this easily if enough people tell them about it. [/QUOTE]
