NS, the Sako rifles in 500 Jeffery are very popular at our BGRC shoots as they are affordable although there are two models. The Brown Bear model and the Safari model, with the latter having a longer barrel, a bigger stock and more weight but also a much bigger price tag. About $15K versus about $5K for the Brown Bear. The Brown Bear however is realistically too light with full power loads especially if you are going to shoot 570 or 600 grain projectiles. A number of guys in the club have that model and even the ones that are well anchored to the ground will often take a step back when the fire a shot. The Safari is a lot nicer in every way but a shit load more expensive. A compromise could be to get a Brown Bear model and have it restocked with a better stock shape and a recoil reducer.
