Sako's are great, especially the 75's. There have been numerous (less than flattering) discussions on here regarding the A-7. I believe I'd take an 85 over the A-7. You can still find decently priced 75's around ...like on Gunbroker. With that said, you may wish to save up more and look at the Coopers. All I can say is holy cow. Puts my Kimber to shame. They are awesome. Made right here in the good ole' USA too. Good luck.
Cooper Hmm..Just what makes them better(in your opinion)
than Kimber?
Finishing, accuracy weight, wood to metal fit, price?
Just curious is all,we don't have Cooper rifles up here.
And am looking at a new firearm thinking about Kimbers myself because of the mauser action,inletting job, pillar bedding, match barrel, and because,they pay very close attention to make sure the barrel square with action,(chamber)neck squared with chamber, locking locks bear evenly etc.
