Have had both a long time go. Brought a new Sako .270 in 1986 and man was it heavy but otherwise a good gun. Worked as advertised, Boom / Flop but did I mention it was heavy. Then found a S/H Remington 700 Mountain Rifle in 25/06 with a 25 inch barrel. Sold the Sako and brought it. far and away the best centrefire I have owned for shooting. Dot used on everything from Rabbits to what ever.
All my hunting was in Southen Alps (Rakaia and Rangitata )
Sold it in a fit of stupidity cause i just had to have a 7-08, Always regretted it and sold that to help fund the first house.
