Sako 90 Varmint 6.5 Creedmoor 1:8 23.7" Bbl RH Set Trigger Wood Laminate Picatinny Rifle JRS90VARL382/24ST, Overview: Sako's 90 Varmint offers both flawless long range precision with a timelessly classic design. The stock is made from laminated birch, and is extremely stiff and rigid. It utilizes a Monte Carlo cheek piece to promote proper alignment between the shooter's eye and a mounted optic, and optimized pistol grip geometry ensures proper hand placement and shooting ergonomics. The forend is wide for greater stability when shooting from a benchrest or a prone position, and rubber butt pad comes standard to alleviate recoil. The 90 Varmint comes standard with Sako's multi-select trigger mechanism. This allows the shooter to choose from five different pull weight settings without having to disassemble the rifle, and provides a consistent way to way to learn to pull the trigger to achieve maximum accuracy. Trigger blade position can also be adjusted for the best shooting ergonomics for any hand size. Receiver: Like all of the rifles in Sako's 90 series, the Varmint is built around the 90 Receiver. As the heart of the rifle, these receivers are designed using a unique broaching method to minimize the contact area between the bolt and receiver. The is made possible by creating an internal surface that matches the profile of the bolt locking lugs. To achieve this, the steel of the receiver is carved by pushing multiple bolt-shaped cutting tools through the receiver to create a straight interior surface. The result of this manufacturing process is one of the smoothest operating bolts available - an essential feature when fast repeated shots are required. The 90 receiver has also been reinforced from previous models to easily withstand heavy recoil and promote superior accuracy. Torsional bending and twisting have been minimized by designing the specific shapes for critical areas, and flat receiver bedding provides better repeatable accuracy than a conventional round receiver design. Furthermore, the 90 Varmint's receiver features integrated picatinny rail sections for virtually unlimited optics-mounting options. Bolt: The innovative design and construction of the receiver is perfectly complemented by the bolt. The bolt's ultra-short throw goes hand in hand with the smooth operation, making follow up shots nearly instantaneous. To ensure reliability extraction, the bolt features a dual plunger design similar to the one found on Sako's sniper rifles. This bolt design is ideal for dangerous game, and was verified by cycling the bolt over 5 million times without any malfunctions. Barrel: All Sako 90 rifles are equipped with a cold hammer forged barrel. Like the receiver's manufacturing process, Sako's cold hammer forging process results in a smoother surface when compared to other rifling methods. Because the steel cannot escape when hitting against the mandril, it creates a smooth, straight, and uniform surface, enabling out-of-the-box-accuracy and completely eliminates the needed for a break-in process. These match-grade barrels also utilize an innovative muzzle-crowning process to enable the pressure to escape the muzzle evenly, thus improving accuracy. Crowns are protected from external hits by a recessed shape, and absolute geometrical uniformity of the crown is mandatory for accurate operation of the rifle. The 90 Varmint's barrel in particular features fluting to help dissipate heat generated from multiple shots.
