Gun Descriptions

The Sako A7 has unique features that are not available in any other Sako or Tikka rifles: The special steel action is made in two sizes, S and M, and to comply with available calibers, the receiver is drilled and tapped for bases, the bolt has three locking lugs in front and a 70-degree angle for fast cycling. Furthermore, it has a polymer magazine with integral steel feeding lips to allow top loading without removing the magazine.

Weatherby offers 28 versions of its Vanguard rifle, so there's bound to be one to fit your needs. With so many varieties, there are plenty of options – as well as third-party accessories – available for customization, but all Weatherby Vanguard rifles are guaranteed to fire 3-shot groups of .99" or less at 100 yards (SUB-MOA) when used with Weatherby ammo. Weatherby Vanguard rifles also feature two-stage triggers that are honed by hand and then tuned and inspected. The housing is made of an alloy and can be adjusted down to 2.5 pounds. An enclosed sleeve helps redirect gasses and particles in case of rupture and is short to reduce weight. A recoil pad helps reduce strain from shooting. The rifles feature 3-position safeties and are positioned to allow the shooter to work the action while still engaged. This is all built to suit a one-piece machined bolt body, providing maximum strength and structural integrity.
