RE: new rifle choice
As a side note, all three made it to my final list, in fact in that order. None of which were on my short list when I started. I had money to burn and was looking at $4000+ customs but it came down to gut feel. I almost bought a 270 WSM Ultralight for a 7.5 lb. scoped sheep rifle, but after a few more miles on my Sako 75, the extra couple of ounces I will handle.
I would buy a Sako 75 in 270WSM if I came across one though.
