Cheers buddy, hope they help! 🍻👍

Fantastic rifle ! I have a tikka t3 so I can’t justify the price increase for the sake 90 but I can’t stop myself from looking

How was the balance with the suppressor ? I imagine that because of the light weight, it must have been at least somewhat front-heavy ? Was it VERY front heavy, or only slightly ?

1in 11 for leadfree ammo? I thought, as copper is lighter, say a 165 grain copper bullet is longer than its copper-lead equivalent and thus requires a faster twist? Or will they only shoot 100-130 grain pills at faster speeds to slightly negate the slower twist rate? (Not heckling, just very curious…)

HI ,do you think the peaks is worth the 800$ difference compare with the adventure? Im thinking saving 800$ and put it on a good glass.

I think you are mainly paying for the carbon fiber. If you can, handle them both.....

Good review, no biggie with the sound issues, and who gives a flying one about the pronunciation of Sako? I have the 85 Carbonlight in .308 and for those interested it will hit small steel plates with consistency out to 700 metres using factory 123gr and 168gr (the rounds I use for hunting). Will go to 800 metres no problem if the barrel isn't too hot. Very good indeed for a 20 inch fluted hunting barrel. Can't recommend these lightweight stunners highly enough, obviously not a range rifle but can do way more than I expected at distance.

I appreciate the review. You definitely repeated yourself a lot saying the same things over and over but it’s still one of the better reviews on these new SAKO rifles (prounounced SOCKO) so far! I had the carbonlight in the 85 series and I really liked that rifle a lot. However it had a 20 1/4 inch barrel which is kind of short in the hunting game, and the Finnish I could see overtime wearing off quite quickly and not having very much grip to it. I think the 90s series having the longer barrel and what appears to be a better textured finish will prove to be better and last longer! Having a finnlight 2, I am used to using the rising cheek piece that is activated by the button, so I’m not sure what it will be like going back to a non-cheek extension stock. I’m assuming if you get the scope down low enough it will be fine. For me there is no need for a threaded barrel that is just an added expense to the rifle that puts it out of peoples range financially! I’m not sure about the Picatinny rail yet, it’s a nice idea but I have always been a fan of the OPTi lock connection system. I believe it looks better, cleaner, and the scope would not move whatsoever with that system! I am also a little turned off by the bolt handle on the 90 series. It reminds me of the Tikka bolt that’s hollowed out. I do not like the look of it or the feel of it but that’s a small sacrifice to have one of these Carbon fiber rifles! Finally, not sure about the twist rate. I understand why they did it but out of my finnlight 2 Sako 85 6.5x55, with a faster twist rate, I shot several different non-lead Ammunition and there was no problems whatsoever. In fact it was better groups than what you were shooting in your video, so I wonder if it will affect the impact on the wildlife that I shoot. Certainly something to consider and think about, but besides the terrible ejection design in the Sako 85s, I have a lot of trust in Sako as a company! Hopefully they have one of these carbon fiber rifles in 6.5x 55 Swede, if not a 243 would be the next best option in my opinion!

i mean if you can shell out 4k or 5k for a rifle then you can spare a few hundred for the threads and a custom bolt handle. personally i appreciate the threads. we can't shoot suppressors where I am (yet, fingers crossed) but a lightweight rifle like that can definitely use a muzzle brake for the larger calibers and i'd really like to future proof my gun for when suppressors do become legal (again, hopefully soon...). much needed imo. i also dislike the picatinny rail btw. rather ghastly...

Thanks for review, beautiful rifle. The sounds is very bad.

That’s my dream gun

Umm, you kept saying how light the rifle was/is, but I guess that I missed it where you gave the actual weight!

The carbon fibre looks so untidy. They haven’t even tried to make the weave look neat and uniform. For the price you would expect a little more attention to detail.

You said "A little bit out of your price range" but you never mentioned MSRP....Nice review though other than the horrible sound

Not sure what it will cost in the USA. My guess is 3k-3500isj ish. Hard to sell them at that price range when you can buy a defiance action, Cf barrel, Timney trigger, decent dbm and cf stock for around same price. Also with twist rates us Americans have use for. I’d get the hunter if it was 1800ish for a heirloom piece to pass down but never one of these. I’m sure it’ll sell wel in countries like Australia, Canada and New Zealand. Us Americans can own 5 guns for what this one will cost. Or one extremely nice gun and nice optic and 1000 rounds of ammo for what this one cost. I can get 2 weatherby mark v for the price of this. 3 xbolts or 4 rem 700’s for example. Not sure these crazy priced factory rifles are worth it these days. Most I’d give for this rifle is 1800 ish. That’s what a Springfield way point steel barrel costs and comes with .75 moa. Also fierce rogue that comes w a cf barrel, cf stock, and Timney trigger cost 1900 ish. And has a .50 moa guarantee. It is based off a sako action as well. So glad to be an American. Sorry Anyone else. They steal your money.

There was nothing wrong with the Sako 85 but Beretta was looking the way to justify price rising so they introduced new rifle.

I have a few older Sako's, 222, 223 vixen, 308 A2 classic, 6.5x55, 7x64 85's. They may not shoot as well as this new one but are better value and better made when I got them. With that said, I like the Model 70 FW and Mauser 98's which are excellent rifles in all forms. I won't be paying big bucks for a carbon fibre stocked rifle, they are not that durable.

@@warpspeednow I understand that these days is easy to obtain moa and sub moa rifle for small amount of money, but thats not all. As you mentioned, those old Sako are not accurate as modern lower priced rifles such as Tikka but the overall quality and durability is just better on old Sakos and thats what i like about them. Im not crazy about carbon stocks but in Eruope we can only have 3 choices, wood, carbon and low quality polymer on both inexpensive and expensive rifles (Steyr great example for expensive rifle with such a low quality polymer stocks). Manufacturers from EU pretends that they never heard of fiberglass stocks🤷🏻‍♂️

Бојан Павловић Yes, that's the economics of just about everything these days. I prefer wood as it has a better feel when in cold weather. I have had firber glass stocks but not as nice as wooden stocks. The US can supply good firber glass stocks as well as laminated stocks. If you can get older Sako's or Brno's, 98's or Winchester model 70 actions, then you can build a very practical and accurate rifle. A lot of new rifles these days unfortunately are mechanical contraptions.
