    3 shots to sight in the new scope. Then put three additional rounds into the orange bullseye circle on a new target. Pretty proud of my grouping until my oldest boy shot up my bullseye with a bunch of his Hornady rounds from his Marlin .44. He’s an excellent shot as all three of my teen boys are. Way better than dad at 51.

    yes I seem to remember that one. They really are the next level in precision hunting rifles.

    Very nice! I have the ugly cousin of a Sako which is a Tikka and I love it. Great guns and lefty friendly

    the Sako dialed in today on the lead sled. My free hand isn't quite as good.
