Dear Sir,with the help of your information and review,I just ordered my first bolt action rifle.. Its a Sako s20 in a special edition. It's custom built by Roedale in Germany, It's a.308 with a 20"fluted barrel with a snipergrey cerakote. It has a hunter back end and a precision fore end,to me the best of both worlds. It comes in true timber strata camo,so you helped me make that choice.it has a roedale muzzlebrake in the same cerakote finish as the barrel. Roedale fluted the bolt,and tuned the action and trigger,the trigger is set at 500 grams,but it can still be adjusted. Due to their work it comes with a 1/2moa guaranty.. There is a utg 360 recon t! bipod under it, and A meopta optika6 4.5-27 x50ffp rd mrad scope on top. Looking forward to shooting it,but it will take at least 2 month's. It is because of people like you that i get enthousiasted and interested in shooting bolt action rifles and i thank you for that. You are a big inspiration to me.Please keep up making all those great video's because i'm sure they are much appriciated. All the best from the Netherlands. With kind regards,Barry.
Great review, managed to pick up a secondhand S20 virtually brand new only shot 24 rounds it was the 24” barrel version but I got Andrew at RifleCraft to lop down and it’s 22&1/4” currently testing factory loads S&B Blues coming in at 1/2 MOA same with Hornady Super Performance GMX 120’s next up are those RWS . This vid is very useful, thanks.
Awesome review mate. Picked one up two weeks ago in 7 mm. Waiting on scope to test the accuracy. A you tuber called Hooteehoo tested the 7 mm. Version and got a .27 inch group with Remington core locked tipped, 150 grains bullets. Pretty incredible accuracy. Hopefully mine does the same.
Just had mine at the range today for the first time. First two on paper at 50 yards were in the same hole just right of center after a bore sight. The third one went in the same hole again but just maybe half a hole high. Absolutely insane to me considering how the 7mm kicks. I love this gun.
Just stumbled across your cracking video, (you have a new subscriber). I'm picking one of these up this week, (the precision stock model with the heavy, longer barrel). By the looks of things 1/4 inch groups will be possible with handloads. Quick question for you, (given the very impressive groups you obtained), did you measure your distance from the lands or did you just work back from the max OAL? Regards,
Dear Sir,thank you for this nice review. I would like to ask your opinion on how the stock feels with this camo look. The normal version feels very "plastic"..at least to me it does,.does the camo version feels better as i imagine sako has put another layer on top of the normal material to make this beautyfull strata camo. Thank you,and warm greetings from the Netherlands.
Personally I really like the stock. Its not as solid feeling as say a Mcmillan but then its lighter but it sits on an aluminium chassis so is very rigid. The camo finish is better than the std finish which is a bit smooth, plus the Camo is really nice looking and practical.
Excellent review Sir 👍 Thank you for uploading and giving genuine feedback about this sexy rifle which I’m going to acquire in the very near future. What’s your thoughts on the Beretta BRX1 straight pull ?
Probably a silly question BUT every review I have seen shows someone switching between one stock and the other. Don't suppose you actually get both when you buy it, do you? I assume it is for video-making purposes only. Currently weighing up either a Tikka T3x or this Sako S20 (in .270). Great video, thank you.
Hi We had no issues with any of the factory or reloads feeding through the magazine, if fact because the magazine can also shoot reloads with long seated bullets it fed better than some other rifles tested. Hope that helps
I've not had any issues at all with my S20 in 300 Win Mag. Fantastic rifle. I just purchased another S20 in 6.5 PRC and am looking forward to putting it thru its paces.
Will someone ever make a rewiew of hunting rifle in a true hunting caliber? Is so dificult to find a rewiew in any a little precision rifle in 7mmRm, 300wm, 270w. Could it be because Those rifles don’t make tight groups with these recoils?
There's a few 300 wm reviews on here, and they shoot excellent. Find the 1:10 twist if you can find it though. I guess they switched to a 1:11? Which limits your options a touch.

I would have went and bought myself steak and lobster after shooting that group. That's one of the best groups I've ever seen! 👏
Barnes LRX 127gr in 6.5CM in a Sako S20 Hunter.
100yrds, 3 shot group, SAME HOLE. Officially the most accurate combination I've ever seen on TH-cam.
Excellent review. The S20 is a stunning looking piece of kit.

That is tight group👌🏻🇫🇮👌🏻
Great and thorough video. Love your accent too!
Monolithic copper bullets do not do well after jacketed lead bullets . Rifle needs to be thoroughly cleaned before using monolithics.
Great in depth review.👍👍. Any small calibre cf varminting reviews coming up.
Will do, plenty more to come including the .14 Walker Hornet, .20 and .22 satan, .17 PPC etc

Any idea on when Sako may come out with the S20 in 7PRC? I'm excited to see what that caliber can do in this rifle.

Would you recommend this over say like a Benelli Lupo ?

To much Haggis !!!
Silencers are legal in Britain ??
Nice review. Have you tried RS62 powder?
RS62 and 6.5CM Max loads start 15% lower 20 inch barrel OAL 2.800 Good fill ratio and near 100% burn Hornady 123gr SST 47.0gr RS62 2862fps/2237ft/lbs , Hornady 140gr SST 44.0gr RS62 2677fps/2228ft/lbs, Barnes 120gr TTSX OAL 2.720 46.0gr RS62 2847fps/2160ft/lbs and Barnes 127gr LRX 45.0gr RS62 2778fps/2176ft/lbs

Thanks, checkout my video on the BRX1: th-cam.com/video/NKqQ2x0i4qU/w-d-xo.html
@@broadswordballistics I’m just about to watch it now ⚡️

Currently weighing up either a Tikka T3x or this Sako S20 (in .270). Great video, thank you.
Both have the exact same barrels mate, made in the same factory, but you probably already new that, cheers Yogi 🤙✌️
I have gone for a T3x, as it is quite a bit lighter (may regret that in .270 🤣)@@rosalindstewart7013
❤️❤️❤️💪
Any feeding issues? Really debating if I should buy one but what holds me back is the issue I’ve seen with feeding the rounds.

Buy it Don’t hesitate.

@@danharris953how is the 6.5. Any issues. I am looking to pick one up
No issues at all. Eurooptic.... check it. I'd buy another in an instant.@@BBSlats
Nice looking rifle ! too bad they dont make them for left handed shooter
What is that silencer?
What scope is he using?

Look for the sako s20 7mm rem mag vid from ‘’woo the woo’’
That riffle is such a sexy girl. My hands being what they are, that grip is the only one that would fit me. When ready, I will go with the 300 mag ...
