Got a chance to take out my Sako S20 for its second range trip ever. Not sure if anyone remembers but I got this off of Cabelas' website as a "display model". Basically NIB for $900 something after .mil discount.
The first trip out was spent sending some factory garbage ammo down range to break the barrel in. Decent 1-1.5moa groups as expected on that trip. This rifle is one of two candidates that might come with me to Africa this spring for plains game. Keeping this in mind, I decided to make use of an 8 pounder of MagPro I had in the safe and paired that with Barnes 175gr LRX.
This was the first group that I shot. Sometimes the reloading Gods bless us with a perfect recipe on the first try. I was so impressed that I am on gunbroker about to spend big money on a .308 in this model
The rifle in question
