I've decided I want a Sako TRG in .308 (TRG-22 I think it is) and am trying to figure out what options will be the best or are more desirable and for what reasons. I like the Desert Tan better but wonder if it's the half pound heavier weight like the green is from the black. What about barrel length? Our local store has one of the 20" versions but how much velocity will I give up in a .308 going this route? I think what I've read says I shouldn't sacrifice too much velocity in a .308 down to 20" but below that is where you start losing noticeable velocity. I would imagine they make a 27" for a reason though so should I stick with the longer version for performance? What about blued vs parkerized? I've seen there are two options and am wondering which of the two is better and why. I've seen that they have a rail/base for optics/rings but is this an option and not standard? I think I read this was about $200 more to have this included. I'm new to TRG and bolt guns as a whole for that matter so any help would be greatly appreciated. I've done some searching but haven't really gotten my questions answered so I thought it would be easier to just start a thread where I could communicate directly with those who have the info.
Thanks!
Thanks!
