As for weight, as anybody who has owned a switch cal rifle before knows, they are always heavier than a standard rifle. The extra metal work and bedding required does put the weight of this over a Tikka, even with a carbon stock. But then again, even a Carbonlight is practically the same weight as a Tikka.
Pricing - i can confirm the Carbon will be north of $8k. Again, we are still in talks as this comes in so many different configurations its not even funny. (Fluted barrel, non fluted, standard weight, D18 profile barrel, manual safety, handspunnel, threaded/non) but those who want it will have it.
Unfortunately everything is going up and even a Finnlight retail is now sitting at just under $4k. If you compare the Sako 100 to the new RRP on a Blaser R8 at $9,200 it sits in the same ball park.
