Stocky’s New Products SHOT 2024

Interesting. I wonder if there's anything related to the "what guns are missing stock options" thread. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

338 Build

I love the 338wm cartidge, but it's getting extremely hard to find factory loaded ammo. That said, I really like my Ruger Hawkeyes. The African 338 is sub moa. I picked up an Alaskan in 338 as well and it also shoots lights out. The Rugers are seriously under-rated imo. I get the urge to build...

What rifle is missing stock options?

Ruger Hawkeye rifles are sorely lacking aftermarket stock options. Maybe there's just no market for it, but they're amazing rifles, imo. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

What’s Next for Sako Rifles?

The 90 doesn't look terrible. I'm guessing they no longer have any semblance of CRF, since they reference TRG and 3 lug. Interesting that they are offering 28 Nosler of all options. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

What’s Next for Sako Rifles?

There was an Instagram post recently that confirmed the 85 being discontinued and it's no longer on the web site. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Pics of wood and blues steel rifles

Ruger Hawkeye African is 338WM. I've been very happy with this one all around. I always keep coming back to wood and blued steel. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

No idea here, other than noticing they've scaled way back on listed calibers and models. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

What’s Next for Sako Rifles?

I personally think the S100 looks like a beautiful rifle, but will never be able to swallow the price tag, nor do I need the switch barrel capability. I'd love to own one, but I don't think I'm their target demographic. I sure hope the 85 is hanging around. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Hendershots Extreme 338 win mag ammo available

Thanks, I may have to look into that. Finding 338 win mag has been a nightmare, and I'm not ready to dip into reloading yet. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

If that's really the 2023 update, what a letdown. Sure seemed like it was going to be more than that. Why are places blowing out the "old" models if it's just a new stock pattern. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Only thing I've seen mentioned is the camo stock pattern above, unfortunately. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Has Sako ever said anything regarding some S20s having feed issues (not stripping rounds from the mag)? I was expecting some mechanical type updates, not just stock colors. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

That's a great pic. Nice moose, indeed. An 85 Kodiak in 338 win mag has been on my list a long time, too. I think they discontinued that combo a while back, unfortunately. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Sleeping in tent with kids and firearms

Something biometric from Vauktek might fit the bill. I have a slider model next to the bed, which I like, but their other pod-type models would secure it from curious fingers and still be quickly accessible.. Sent from my SM-S908U1 using Tapatalk

Over barrel suppressors

I think these days if I was looking to buy a suppressor for a hunting rifle, I'd look hard at an integral barrel. I've been eyeballing SWS barrels for a while, but the current wait times are off-putting. Never used a reflex can. Used a 338 can on a Ruger Alaskan one time. While the length was...

I have an 85 Black Bear in 9.3x62. It's without a doubt my favorite. I grail though would be a Bavarian Carbine in 9.3 as well.

Sako International just told me via Instagram that any new S20 info would come at the Western Big Game Expo, fwiw. Looks like that's next week maybe?

What’s Next for Sako Rifles?

I asked Sako and Eurooptic both about the S20 closeouts. Sounds like the S20 is getting some kind of 2023 update, but Sako wouldn't provide any further info. Was hoping from something at SHOT, but haven't seen any news. The closeout prices are awfully tempting, but I wish I knew what I might...
