sako scope rings?

adamwipp07 · Apr 24, 2014

I recently bought a sako Finn light 300wsm. I bought a vortex scope for it with 30 mil ttube. I've been having trouble finding scope rings for it. I bought the gun from gander mountain and have been waiting for 3 months and they still haven't got them in. I tried searching for them on line but not having any luck.

Does anyone on here know of any dealer that might stock sako scope rings?

I like the Leupold version better than Sako's. you can order them from about anywhere.

Stay thirsty my friends

I can't help you with the rings, but you will like that rifle. I bought mine at gander mountain back in 2006 (the older 75). It has been a killing machine ever since!

Good to hear, haven't shot it yet, hopefully soon. It's a heck of a lot lighter than my remington 700, 300 ultra mag

I like the Sako Optilock mounting system. Here's a place with the Opti system in stock:

Here are the Leupold's in stock:

In the reviews on Midway USA, the Leupolds got bad reviews, but I have never noticed a problem with them.

I've got a set of the Leupolds if you would like to try them. I'll send you a PM with the information.

I have a very light weight Sako A7 in 300WSM. I ended up putting a brake on it. It kicked worse than my other bigger Sako's (7STW & 338 mag). But the 300WSM is my "go to" for everything now, super accurate (just like every Sako I've ever owned). I'm thinking about getting a Finn Light in 270WSM for sheep and antelope.

Thanks for the info. I ended up ordering the mounts and rings straight from beretta.

Have you found any factory loads that shoot well out of your 300wsm or do you custom load your rounds? I bought 1 bow of federal nosler partitions in 180 grain to start with. Was wondering if anyone had any advice on other factory loads to try?
