There are a few vids on you tube on the Sako 500 ,but dont really tell you much ,apart from one vid where they say it hurt to shoot, and that was enough for them ,two gun shops in QLD have them for around 5300.00 ,I don't know if its sacrilege to suggest fitting it with a muzzle break, which make a big difference in recoil ,and with 535gr projs a kid could shoot it .Since the cost of restocking it and finding a willing person to do its getting harder to find .
