    Sako 85 is a 9,3x62 Range Shots

    My handloaded 232 grains Oryx didnt perform well. But the factory loaded Lapua Naturalis did. Will order some Naturalis bullets later and try to duplicate the load. Some more load development may also solve the Oryx trouble.

    The old carpet again..

    No luck hunting tonight. But i got to spend some quality time with this boy though. A 2 year old bull moose. He hung around for almost an hour. Nice with some company. Well, maybe i should take that no luck tonight back. I consider myself pretty lucky to have had him so close for so long time...

    Here on Sweden its bad luck to say good luck when hunting. Now, directly translated we say ” shit hunting on you”:LOL: But there is no way you could know that so thank you very much Sir. Tomorrow i hope to post some other pictures.

    They are fired one after the other. Thats around 20mm c-c grouping. Its the Lapua Naturalis. The 232gr was 5 shots somewhere around 70-80 mm. Maybe enough for hunting but not for me. Some fine tuning may help. Also my shooting today might not have been at its best. My thought on the 15 grams...

    The Sako 85 is a 9,3x62 and has better finnish than the last 85 i owned a short while last year. Its not perfect though. But, its brand new and i payed more or less the same as for a Tikka T3. Got some Norma brass and bullits for it today. Tomorrow i will get some powder too.. As for the knife...

    Im a 100% sure Von Gruff are exeptional knifes. But i wanted Mr. Art Lambart to tell me why. I can get another. Maybe a Von Gruff. But it has to be as good as a Fällkniven or better.

    You wont get an x model for $240.. As for the Garberg. Its a good knife, but not something i would use for a all round utillity knife. The blade is to thin and weak, in my opinion. Also i dont like the handle. I generally dislike coatings, mine did have one. It wore off quickly. Not that that...

    For sure! But as ive stated before, in these times i prefer my money to stay i Sweden. If possible. Well, some of it in this case, Japan. As for the Garberg. I have had one.

    I used to have a old L61R to, absolutley amazing. The one i regret selling is however a Sako 75 laminated stainless in 30-06. Should have kept that one.. The knife, its just right. Thats a keeper for sure.

    The old carpet again..

    Not possible. Its a Kahles Helia 2-10x50i. The illumination is located on the left side and the reticle is somewhat looking like the german 4. Also the cartridge didnt struck the windage turret but rather the tube it self.

    I expect this one to perform no less. Also it got the new laminated cobalt steel.

    The old carpet again..

    Well..the rifle is starting to grow on me. Took it to the range this evening. The trigger is nothing less then amazing. Just so clean and crisp. Unfortunately it ejects the cartridges straight up into the scope, but it always did leave the receiver at least. Some electrical tape will, not...
