Just one comment - that Sako 75 gives me the creeps... It's just the
way I would have made a rifle myself if I ever should construct one.
Until now, I've never heard a bad word about it. I doubt that I ever
will...

Just wish I could get one myself...

I have one'a those New Model 96 straight pull, it shot like 0.5" groups with
150gr handloads and still well within minute-of-elk with Rem 180 factory.

Its kinda weird workin the bolt.

The trigger is very heavy anda little gritty.

The ejector is very whimpy and seems to pull forward out of its hole.
See the Mauser discussion forum:
http://www.mauser-werke.com/mboard/ I anda few others have posted comments on
it.
