Sako 85 Kodiak 375 H+H
#143595 - 13/10/09 07:55 PM

has anyone got or used one fo these? I am putting serious consideration into changing out a couple of my other big bores to get one of these. I am not concerned about the push controlled feed (have another Sako 85 which I am very happy with).

Cheers

Mike,
This should get you started in your search.

Kodiak is area 8. And the best area there is on the SW end of the island. Around Olga bay and Deadman's Bay.

There are alot of good guides around to lead you thru the steps. For a bigger bear most look on the pennunsila. The Kodiaks tend to be smaller now days.
PM me your address and I'll send a pic of one I helped out on a few years ago. I wasn't the shooter though.
