UNLEASH YOUR PRECISION CAPABILITIES DOWN TO 0.5 MOA ACCURACY.
Fieldsports Journal22 October 2024
SAKO is the most trusted manufacturer of accurate bolt action rifles and ammunition. The TRG precision rifles are relied upon by professional teams in defence and law enforcement missions in well over 60 countries. With the same people, passion and manufacturing methods they craft the acclaimed Sako and Tikka rifles and ammunition for hunters and sport shooters around the world.
Measured to Perfection:
For Sako, precision isn’t just a claim — it’s a built-in capability of their products.
The accuracy of the rifles is measured using a rigorous method: firing multiple shots and recording the distance between the outermost bullet holes. For Sako, they use a 5-shot group procedure to measure and verify the rifles accuracy. For Tikka, they have a 3-shot group. They put their rifles through rigorous testing with Sako ammunition, using over a million of cartridges every year to ensure unmatched performance.
The Sako TRG precision rifles, when paired with Sako TRG precision ammunition, can deliver down to 0.5 MOA accuracy. This requires that the rifle is properly maintained and is in uncompromised condition.
Sako and Tikka hunting and sport shooting rifles (Sako 100, Sako 90, Sako S20, Tikka T3x), when combined with Sako TRG precision or Powerhead Blade lead-free ammunition, can deliver sub MOA accuracy.
Unleashing Precision
Achieving top-tier precision isn’t just about the rifle or ammunition; it’s about your own ability to control the whole system. To get the best performance from your Sako or Tikka rifle, we recommend taking a few crucial steps:
Keep your rifle in peak condition: Clean the barrel thoroughly, especially removing copper fouling.
Ensure your rifle’s mechanics are flawless: Verify that the crowning is undamaged, action screws are properly torqued, and the recoil lug is in full contact.
Secure your optics: Proper attachment and torque of scope mounts, as well as the condition of your scope, are essential for consistent accuracy.
Use “first-time feed” ammunition: For best results, use ammo that has never been cycled through the magazine.
Keep training: Practice at the shooting range is never time wasted. Keep perfecting those skills to ensure you get the maximum performance and results in the fields.
