I had a 85 stainless synthetic in 30-06, I kept it for 2 months then traded it in due to the stock not being up to the standard that it should be, (compared to Sako 75 synthetic stock) I have recently purchased a 85 in .375 H&H with a wooden stock, its a peach, so much so that I have another 85 on order (Stainless laminated) My personal opinion is to avoid the synthetic stock.
