Default RE: Weatherby or Sako Poll

Just as information here are some canadian rifle prices from russells sports of calgary.
700bdl ss dm-magnum-$989.99
a-bolt stainless stalker with boss-magnum-$1189.99
model 70 classic stainless w/o boss magnum-$1019.99
mark V super big gamemaster-$1899.99
finnlight magnum-$1599.99
tikka all weather magnum-$919.99
As you can see the tikka is the lowest priced with the 700 slightly more.The finnlight is almost $700 more than the tikka.For the price of the mark V sbgm you could buy 2 tikkas and have money left over.
It makes you wonder why anyone in canada would buy any weatherby except the vanguard.Even the finnlight is closing in on the price of a custom rifle which can be had for just over $2000 from a canadian gunbuilder.
