Description
 
Sako 90 Quest - 6.5 Creedmoor - 24.3" - Graphite Black Cerakote - Carbon Fiber Stock - 5 RND:

The Carbon Wolf was a ground-breaking hunting stock for a production rifle, and the Sako 90 Quest continues the story. Its multi-adjustable carbon fiber stock, for superb shooting ergonomics, and RTM technology, for effective recoil-absorbing stock construction, ensure the perfect shot wherever you roam. The new coating on the stock offers perfect grip in any condition and the Cerakoted stainless steel barreled action ensures your rifle is ready for action even after days of hiking.

Key Features:

MULTI-ADJUSTABLE SAKO CARBON FIBER STOCK FOR ULTIMATE ERGONOMICS
The adjustability of the length-of-pull and cheek piece allow the stock to adapt to different anatomies and situations. Extremely robust, solid and light 3D-meshed carbon stock with low noise signature - to manage recoil forces and enhance the rifle's repeatable accuracy.

THE SAKO COLD HAMMER FORGED BARREL
Cold hammer forged (CHF) barrels provide out-of-the-box accuracy that lasts longer. All Sako 90 rifles feature match-grade cold hammer forged barrels.

THE LEGENDARY SAKO BOLT ACTION EXPERIENCE WITH PICATINNY RECEIVER
The most reliable, field-tested and proven bolt in the market - to ensure maximum safety and robust push-feed operation. The Picatinny receiver offers a machined-in Picatinny interface for flexible optics mounting and repeatable accuracy.

THE MULTI-ADJUSTABLE SAKO 90 TRIGGER MECHANISM
Offers users the choice of five different weight-of-pull settings without disassembling the rifle. The trigger blade position is also adjustable.

DURABILITY THROUGH MATERIAL AND COATING SOLUTIONS
Reliability, rigidity and durability is what the Sako 90 Adventure is all about. The carefree glass fibre stock has a durable coating that offers protection against the elements. The stainless steel barreled action has been coated with Tungsten Cerakote for ultimate protection against the elements and mechanical wear resistance.

TEXTURIZED SURFACE GUARANTEES A PERFECT GRIP IN ALL CONDITIONS
Bare carbon fibre is slippery, which is not ideal when conditions get wet. The Sako 90 Quest stock has an all-over texturized coating that offers a perfect grip in any condition and situation.

DUAL SLING STUDS FOR FLEXIBLE BIPOD AND SLING ATTACHMENT
The Sako 90 Quest has two sling studs under the forend. This allows you to have a bipod mounted on one while leaving the other free for a sling. There are also accessories available that you can mount on the stud threads, such as Picatinny pieces.

6.5 Creedmoor:

The 6.5mm Creedmoor is a centerfire rifle cartridge introduced by Hornady in 2007 as a modification of the .30 TC, which was based on the 300 Savage. It was designed specifically for rifle target shooting , although it is also achieving success in hunting. Bullet for bullet it achieves a slower muzzle velocity than longer cartridges such as the 6.5-284 Norma or magnums such as the 6.5mm Remington Magnum. However, due to its 2.825 inch overall length, the 6.5mm Creedmoor is capable of being chambered in short-action bolt rifles

Suggested Use:

  • Predators
  • Small Game
  • Varmint
  • Deer

Performance:

This is a medium power cartridge is often comparable to the .260 Remington and 6.5x47mm Lapua but is not as accurate as the Lapua case. Three hundred yard energy using 129 grain Hornady SST bullets is listed by an independent reviewer as 1641 ft. lbs. For the 140 grain bullet at 2700 feet per second initial velocity another reviewer reports an MPBR for a six inch high target of 265 yards and reports a manufacturer claim of almost 1600 ft. lbs. of retained energy at 300 yards using a 24 inch barrel. SAAMI test data confirms 6.5 mm Creedmoor (fifteen foot from muzzle) velocity of 2,940 fps for the 129 grain bullet and 2,690 for the 140 grain bullet (which compares to .300 Winchester magnum data of 2,930 fps for a 200 grain bullet and 2,665 fps for a 210 grain bullet).
