I own Sako's in 7mm-08, 280, 7mm Rem. Mag, 300 Wby. Mag., and 375 H&H Mag.. My Dad has Sako's in 223, and 7mm-08. With proper handloads they are all 1" or less shooters, except the 375 H&H, I never shot it enough to find out since it's not the kind of round you want to do lots of bench shooting with. It's just my opinion but I think they are definetly worth the money, get one you won't regret it.
