My "New" Sako Model 75 with my Enfield and M91/30

Thanks for the help guys, I purchased a "like new" Sako Model 75 Hunter in .308 Win, for $975. I'll post pics soon. I can't wait to get it to the range.

Does anyone know what torque range should be applied to the screws on the Sako Optilock mounts for a Sako Model 75 III Hunter? I've searched all over the net, and have checked on Beretta's website as well with no luck.

I found a used Sako 75 Hunter .308 Win no irons for $975 going to check it this weekend and check on the condition of the rifle. Does anyone know what a used Sako 75 is going for nowadays?

Fremmer, I'll check into the Remington 700 Classic, it's the same as the 700 CDL I think. How are the trigger and action on that rifle? Also, after double checking my scope isn't a Rifleman, but a Leupold VX-I 3-9x 40mm so still not as nice as a VX-3 but it will get the job done. I'd planned...

Suppose I should have posted this in my first post but I've already got a Leupold VX-I 3-9x 40mm that I was planing to mount on whatever rifle I purchased.

Surjimmy, I was looking a Tikka T3 (love the smoothness of the action) but I found the plastic trigger guard and magazine sort of worrisome. I do like the look of the Sako 85 Hunter though. Fremmer, I might be wrong didn't think the BDL was offered in a chambering for .308 Win.

I've got a Magpul MIAD on my MP15 and I love it. The standard grip is not bad the MIAD just feels better to me.

I'm looking for a new hunting rifle, used primarily for hunting whitetails though I'd like to consider hunting some larger game. I've got a couple of criteria: I'd preferred a bolt action Caliber: .308 Win Wood stock (synthetic just doesn't feel right) Price range $700-$1800 (wide price...
