Sako 75 Hunting Rifle

The New Sako 75 is long on accuracy, reliability, and safety.

Available from Stoeger Industries in Wayne, New Jersey, it's the first rifle with an action that has both a bolt and three locking lugs along with a mechanical ejector for smooth and dependable operation.

Its new cold hammer-forged barrel is totally free-floating, so the point of impact remains constant. The new Sako 75 also has a separate bolt release button, so there's no need to touch the safety to remove a cartridge and mistakenly disengage it. There are two stock options: synthetic or high-grade hand-checkered walnut.
