Yeah I've got one but I don't think it would make a great hunter class rifle. They have 1-14 twist barrels

Yes but I'm not looking to sell. Just giving you the heads up that you won't be able to use high BC bullets

I sold my Sako 75 varmint sometime ago. To the best of my knowledge they all came out with the set trigger and having owned several Sako rifles since 1958, I would consider the 75 to be the best centre fire action they made apart from the earlier M951.
The best way to get a 75 Varmint in a 6mm suitable for your need would be to buy one and get it rebarrelled. Due to the quality of the 75 varmint, not many owners will part with them as they hold their value very well and a new Sako is now very pricey.
I am certainly ruing the day that I sold mine. :(

There is a Sako 75 Varmint for sale in Used Guns, it’s in 22:250 calibre though, but it gives an indication of price.
The seller has $3,000 on it which is about the lower to mid price fit this rifle. :?:
