    Sako 90

    Interesting video. The Sako employee does say they'll be introducing XL magnum sized actions in the future about six minutes into the video. Not sure about the 90's, has anyone tried one?

    Spending double rifle money on a bolt-action rifle

    I hear what you're saying, and I'm not taking offense to it at all. For me guns are tools, they need to accomplish the job at hand, but I do like nice tools. I will say that some of the CZ's, in particular my .505 Gibbs, have appreciated in value quite a bit. Some of the big bore Sako's have...

    Spending double rifle money on a bolt-action rifle

    I'm the guy that's always trying to buy something of premium quality for less money. Which is why I own Meopta's, Sako's, a Krieghoff, CZ's, Leupold's, and Ruger's. I do think I'll end up with a Heym double at some point, maybe a Blaser R8 or a Rigby Big game - or maybe both.

    Which scope would you prefer on a 375 H&H Bolt for DG and PG -

    I think it is next to impossible to disagree with that scope, but they are really fucking expensive.

    Really hard to beat that kind of value. Even it doesn't have the best reticle on it. I own five of those.

    Which scope would you prefer on a 375 H&H Bolt for DG and PG -

    If the Swarovski Z6 1.7-10x42 is a 99 out of 100 the Meopta Meopro R2 is a 97 out of 100 - but much cheaper

    Or a Meopta 1.7-10x42mm for less than half the price

    I would go with a Meopta MeoPro R2 1.7-10x42 or a Meopta MeoPro R2 1-6x24. The Optika is their cheaper line, and frankly I think it is on par with the Leupold VX-6HD, but the Meopro R2 is head and shoulders above any of the Leupold's - I own them both FYI

    New rifle, and I fired a muzzle brake for the first time...

    This is sure to cause a ruckus, but... see the video below about 2:30 into it. I am not saying that is a perfect test, but it is certainly a nice data point. Not any louder with the muzzle break....
