Ugh, that is a horribly ugly rifle! It probably won't hit anything with that glass on there. Clearly you skimped on it. Here, you just better send it to me right away and learn from your mistakes.

For all of you without a sense of humor, all of that was what we call sarcasm. Seriously, that Is a beautiful rifle and should be a great shooter for a long time. I'm very envious!!

Nice.

I've got her cousin, and if yours shoots anything like my Sako M75 Varmint SS/Lam 204, you'll be a very happy camper. Mine loves both the 32gr and 39gr SBK over RL-10X, shoots both in the .3's (or a tad better if I'm "on" that day

):

Let us know how she shoots. If she's a dog, I'll gladly take it off your hands too.

That is a ugly rifle, but if you send it my way, I will see what I can do with it to improve it..

Thought I would post a pic of a pair of my Sakos. The top one is a Model 85 Varmint laminate Stainless 204R that I had on order for 13 months and just got it this Feb. The bottom one is a model 75 222 that I picked up this summer while I was waiting for the 204 to show up. Both guns are wearing Burris Black Diamond 6X24X50 scopes.

Very nice!

I had in mine the, almost, scope. I was looking for the scope with ballistic turrets. What are the reasons for this reticle?

This scope isn't as effective as it could be as when sighted in at 100 the lower crosshairs is at 302

BT should be better. Thanks for the info.
