Default RE: Sako75 or Wby accumark

There are some advantages to the Weatherby that no one has bothered pointing out.

It has the 3 ports in the bolt, so if a case ruptures, the gas escapes horizontally, and not into your face.
Plus, the Weatherby has a 54 degree throw, while the Sako has a 70 (I think.) And many Weatherbys are made in the USA, helping employee a fellow shooter. Whereas Sako is made in Finnland.

I guess I can't be too critical of the Sako though, since I am in the process of getting a Sako.
