    The first Sako I bought, a 75 in .222, wood stock with stainless barrel, shoots amazing. It’s when I realised that there are some accurate factory rifles out there :D Never owned a Sako or Tikka...

    No idea on weight of meat since I always forget to weigh it once I'm home. Recently it has been boned out rear legs above the knee joint, backstraps from butt to base of neck, and tenderloins. Plus...

    I'm about to start on the long road to lighter gear for this very reason, its going to be expensive and take a lot of time but has to happen, I'm only 62Kg so big weights are a thing of the past.
