I own a Sako TRG .308 and would like some ideas on what is the best optics for this gun and rings for a 800yd type shot.

You might want to add some details to your question. What type of shooting you are going to do primarily, budget etc etc.
This ^^^ or just buy a PMII 5-25 DT with the reticle of your choice then add a Spuhr mount and done.
A Sako TRG and a S&B PMII 5-25 DT? That would spoil this poor fella. If he ever had to shoot something mediocre he is going to throw rocks at it. haha
I am wanting to do long range target shooting. Price isn't a concern if it is the right scope.
While the S&B glass is great up to and past 800 yards I would consider the the Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 with Zero Stop and High Speed Turrets. If you were shooting much further than 800 yards I might consider the S&B line. I have never had any problems with the Nightforce on my TRG 22.

This is how I set up my TRGs. Know that if you go with one of these scopes you will want to make sure you have an inclined mount. I use the 13mil Spuhr, but for 800 yds you don't need that much.
I have a steiner military 5x25 on mine with nightforce ultralight rings. Been very satisfied with the performance.
I have a friend that is sponsored by Nightforce so that is one that I have been leaning towards. Thanks

Kirk, do you have any shadowing when zeroed at 100yds with that 40moa mount? I do love me some TRGs, those pics makes me miss mine...
Not at all. I run 40 MOA mounts on just about everything. The S&B is designed for 40 MOA but I was a little worried about getting a 100 yd zero with the XLR, not a problem.
I went kahles 6-24 gen2 msr-k. I have SB 5-25 but thought it looked better on my AI.
I also went with a spuhr direct TRG mount.

Here is a pic using a 20MOA base and Seekins rings with the S&B. other pics above are the dovetail Spuhr
I have a S&B 5X25X56 on my AI. But if you read the reports on the new Vortex 4.5X27X56 they seem to be very good and at $2499 that may be worth a look. I was able to handle the Vortex and this years shot show and liked what I saw.

Great looking setup. I would recommend the Kahles also. There are a lot of other great scopes out there like the S&B, Nightforce, and Vortex.
Thanks MIKE!
If you can get behind a few that would be my recommendation. If money is no issue it's hard to beat a S&B 5-25. I have one and it will ruin you when you look through most other optics. For the money I believe a the NF NXS or ATACR is hard to beat. You'll get a MILLION different answers but generally most guys will say S&B, Vortex HD, Hensdolt, etc. Check the optics section and you might catch a deal.
I looked through a Premier the other day and it had very nice glass as well.
