Thread: Sako Carbonlight - New for 2015

I like that the carbon appeared to be fully wrapped threw the bedding and barrel channel (maybe even the mag well?)

Looks that way aye..

Just like christensen arms carbon stocks, serious works of art !!!

Thought someone said the stock was supposed to be 300 and something grams?

5k, fuck me. Then you'd feel silly putting anything less than a 2-3k scope on it. 7-8k rifle unsuppressed.

I had the cash but couldnt even justify to myself the jump from X-Bolt to 85 Finnlight. First they wanted double the price, now more than triple haha.

4k I could at least understand although it'd still be ridiculous. 5k they can just fuck off .

Yip, that was me. Then @gimp provided an accurate weight for a "S" actioned Finnlight.

They make a "alpine" version now too, I reckon it would be cheaper than the Sako and most like you would get one faster as well
and is only a little heavier too

Looks ok apart from the sticky outy mag which is hideous !

It does say there is a regular floorplate model available, no photo though.

Any one seen one in real life yet?? Ive been told that they wont be for sale until sept

I had a fondle of one of these Sako's today & yes it's cool and real prutty

The stock has a very nice finish & feel ( quite thick through the pistol grip / palm swell ) and the action seems to have been trimmed a bit over the standard 85 ( Im no Sako expert though )


I'd have one

I had a look at one last week and thought the same thing. The stock has a real "Grippy" feel to it which I like. It has an unusual/different forend as well. Sort of like an old Brno/Parker hale...sort of. And yes it had a decent size pistol grip. not like some of the skinny offerings out there today. Still at about $4200 A tikk and a carbon fibre stock would be as good and save you a HELL of a lot of $$$$.

WERE ARE THEY!!!!!?????!!!!
