I have owned two, one Deluxe in 9,3x62. I loved it. Absolutely beautiful gun. Lovley finish and handled like a well balenced shotgun..
However, it had a slight ejection problem. Not that it would not eject, but rather bang up the brass good. This was around 2012.
Then, recently i got my self a 85 Classic. It went back to factory without me shooting it.
Terrible finish. I swore i would never again buy something from Beretta again.
I keep reading about the ejection problem with the 85s. Also ive noticed that there is no mentioning about this until 2013ish..
Love Sakos. Have owned or own several 75, Finnbear and M98s.
Im a bit thorn about the 85 though. Its one of the finest gun to handle out there, in my opinion, but, there may be issues..
So, what is your opinion on the Sako 85? Lets love it or thrash it. Or both.
Last week, my promise to myself not to buy Beretta again went down the crapper..
Orderd a Sako 85, once again. I sure hope third times the charm.
Who knows?
