Sako 85

The receiver has a proprietary integrated scope mount, which is a dovetail rail with varying width (narrower at the rear, wider at the front).

The Sako 85 is test fired at the factory with a 5-round group, which must satisfy a precision requirement better than 30 mm at 100 meters (0.3 mrad).

The rifle is delivered from the factory with a stock made of either walnut, laminate, plastic[10] or carbon fiber, and with different shapes depending on the intended form of hunting or shooting discipline.

[12] The bolt is cocked on opening, and has controlled feeding with the ejector fixed to the receiver.

All factory barrels for Sako 85 are cold hammer forged, and can be delivered in various lengths, profiles and rifling twists, with or without iron sights, and either with a matte or polished finish.
