This is what I found on guntrader within 30 seconds... #2 is my favourite rifle, but #3 has a Zeiss scope and better mod (in my opinion)

Cant see why. Most will not have seen any action. Lots of talking and not much shooting in this business. The sako 75 is an excellent piece of kit.

I bought a 2nd hand CZ, with T8,sling and scopes £595.00. Got 12 months guarantee and I was told if I wasn't happy with grouping I could return for full refund. Borders Gun Room .

Sounds a good deal. Cannot see how it can get much better than that.
apart from the hideous thing that is on the end of a fine barrel, that is a rifle/setup of a lifetime (ie. it will last you a lifetime and you will remain very pleased with it).
indeed, I saw a rifle in good condition the other day, but the owner had left the mod on at all times, which had caused such bad pitting in the barrel it was getting scrapped. pity really...mind, another reason why mods are not a good thing

Agreed - add £300 for a Hardy Gen IV and it's all you'll need (until you want a Sako 75 in 6.5x55mm of course!!)

OK a new one is the only way to go then.
