So was I for a while, actually a Sako 75 for me, I ended up buying a Tikka TX3 in 9.3x62 & plan on fitting it to a 75 I have, I have fitted several Tikka barrels to other Sako 75 & 85 with no trouble !

Man, I bought a Sako 85 Black Bear in .308 a month ago. A black bear in 9.3 would be the cat’s pajamas. 20” barrel, great irons and of course the action and trigger.

Actos/grizzly in 9.3x62 would be pretty sweet

Has anyone seen the sako 90 grizzly yet?

 

[OSU]

Don't think there is a 90 grizzly

There’s a couple YouTube videos people have a sako 90 grizzly at shows I guess but I can’t find anything else about them.

I looked for one for the longest time but ended up finding a Steyr CLii at my local gun shop for a good price. Good luck on your search.

A couple of years ago, I missed out on a left-handed Sako 85 Hunter in 9.3x62 for a great price. It’s the only one I ever saw & it still annoys me that I missed it…

I was recently looking for a 9.3x62 in a Steyr when I stumbled across a left-handed CL II in 30-06 that was a great deal. Not exactly what I wanted but close enough to accept a compromise on a nice rifle so I’m happy with it.

Good luck with your search.

A buddy had the Black Bear in 9.3x62. He ended up selling it. I didn't take it because I didn't like the plastic stock. Big mistake.

I did end up getting the full stock Bavarian in 9.3. I changed the sights to the Black Bear style.

Sure, but my father, who is always stealing my guns*, has my 9.3x62 right now**. The photo of me with the bear is the 9.3x62, best I can do at the moment. In true Toby458 fashion, the 9.3x66 is on my kitchen counter. Say what you want about Sako's - I have used them without failure in several different countries - they just shoot straight, that's all I can say
