I am looking for a new rifle, have a lot of hiking in mind (caribou) as well as locally in Indiana during deer season.
I like 308 so I want to stick with that caliber.
Have it narrowed down to the Sako Quest, or the Weatherby Backcountry Guide Ti. Both have 20" barrels, the Sako is stainless, the Weatherby is carbon fiber. The Sako is about 6 pounds, the Weatherby is 5 pounds.
They are both around $3,500.00.
One minor plus for the Weatherby is that it has built in Spartan attachment points, I like Spartan bidpods.
Any opinions either way? Any specific positive or negative experiences with either one?
