Sako S20

I've heard that the S20 stock can scratch quite easily - is this true?
I don’t think so! I was only thinking about this aspect whilst I was stood with it up on sticks hoping a final roe buck would show on my permission tonight. I must have got one of the first available S20s available in 2020 and it has stalked weekly since then and done 5 weeks solid stalking up on Arran where it gets a lot of abuse and not enough love. I have no scratches whatsoever on the fore-end or stock but oddly, 2 small scratches inside the thumb stock. The bolt handle has wear scratches where you grab it as you lift it at the forward side (white showing through) and the black on the receiver has some thinning around the ejection port. Given the use and abuse, I think it’s ageing rather well:D

I was told in the gun shop that a S21 would come along to correct the rattling magazine, fortunately the 85 is still available and that's what I brought and I am delighted with it.
