Built mine off a Sako m75 Greywolf back in 2008. New PacNor supermatch grade stainless barrel cut to 24", fluted. Mine is the AI version, mostly to be different. Shoots 225gr ABs and TTSX quite nicely . H414 with 210 primers. Shoot medium/hot loads to resize new Norma 338-06AS brass to fireform to AI.
I have not shot this rifle for a few years now...life gets in the way with 2 boys in hockey and coaching...but all is good. Maybe use this rifle for 2023 hunting season.
I have been tempted to build another off a Sako m75 again but going light weight with MacMillan stock and 22" barrel as a #2 or #3 barrel...maybe #3 fluted. Would consider the 185 or 210gr Barnes TTSX or the Accubond 180 or 200gr.
