Description

The SAKO 85 Carbonlight is a high-end hunting rifle series that blends classic bolt-action reliability with modern materials and lightweight design. The Model SDX27TH1AM leverages the large (L) action to support the long and powerful 7mm Remington Magnum cartridge, delivering excellent ballistic performance for medium- to long-range big game hunting.

Built around the legendary Sako 85 bolt action with controlled-round feed and three locking lugs, this rifle offers smooth and dependable cycling across varied conditions. The carbon-fiber stock (CFRP) significantly reduces overall weight (L-size Carbonlight rifles typically weigh around 2.8 kg without accessories) while maintaining rigidity and strength for reliable shot placement.

The cold-hammer-forged fluted barrel (≈ 620 mm / ~24.4″ for L action) enhances heat dissipation and contributes to sustained accuracy, and the rifle comes with a muzzle brake (MB) to help tame recoil from the 7mm Rem Mag cartridge — ideal for extended shooting sessions. Configured NS (no iron sights), the rifle is optics-ready via Sako’s integrated dovetail rail. The detachable two-row magazine (DM) ensures quick and reliable reloads in the field.

Whether you’re tackling open plains or mountainous terrain, the Sako 85 Carbonlight 7mm Rem Mag blends precision, portability, and ergonomics for a capable long-range field rifle.
