I recently returned from an ibex hunt in Kyrgyzstan, and a hunter in our party had a Sako 85 Finnlight in 300 Win Mag. I really liked it, so purchased one on returning. He was a factory load guy, and I'm a reloader, but this cartridge is a new one for me. Any suggestions? 24 3/8 barrel. The rifle will be used for sheep hunting, and shots in the 500 yard range are not uncommon. Point me in the right direction please.
