Sako Semi-Custom Build

The base stock was around $950 prior to shipping - not cheap, but considering that I couldn't find any other CF option for a sako action to fit a sendero contour barrel without modifications I felt it was worth it. I had a few add ons (bipod mount and forest paint) that brought it up a bit from...

Sako Semi-Custom Build

Sako Semi-Custom Build

I bought a Sako 300WM finnlight a couple years ago and, although it shot okay (just around MOA with hand loads), it was never really up to my expectations. I'm in the process of going down the rabbit hole of a semi-custom build but was wondering if others have gone the same path. I saw one post...
