Sako 85 Ejection Issue Solved

Take a look at the video I made, showing how I solved my Sako 85 375 H&H ejection issue.
If you read my hunt report, entitled, BUFFALO RODEO IN THE KALAHARI, you can read about the very hairy position this rifle put me in while hunting Cape Buffalo. I wish I had fixed this issue before my hunt, but hind sight is 20/20!
Anyway, if you're having a similar issue with your Sako 85, here's the remedy.
I think solved is a pretty flattering statement. maybe bypassed the problem. Also it needs to be said that the scope tube is 1" not 30mm or that those mounts and rings still seem quite high as opposed to the low Sako Optilok ring mounts which make it worse but puts the scope nice and low where it needs to be.... Damn shame really....
 
@Mark R Those are actually low rings. But most other makers would probably call them medium. Either way, they work perfectly on this rifle for proper cheek weld, and eye alignment.
But I would agree that "bypassed" the problem is a correct term.
