Re: Is it a Sako or a Tikka

Just some more details; the roots of the Sako TRG sniper rifle series are in the Valmet M/86 Sniper that was made in only 200 ex. before Valmet lost a mid eighties competition for a new FDF sniper rifle.

The Valmet design was later further developed by Sako into the successful TRG series of military sniper rifles. The TRG-S or M995 is the civilian version with both a standard (30-06) and a magnum (.338 LM) length receiver. It finally got too expensive to manufacture and was discontinued in 2002.
