Thanks a LOT Jack! Nothing like helping me make a DECISION.
You remind me of a buddy I had in high school who's answer to every controversy was.... "I feel strongly BOTH ways..."
Which one would YOU choose at that price?
I'm guessing with the Obama economy not many guys are going to walk in off the street in either shop with cold cash to buy either, so both will probably work a little with the price when I flash the cash...
The shop the 700 is at already made me an offer of $850 and he would throw in a 20 round box of Hornady .222...plus he had just taken a 12x M8 Leupold in trade and offered to switch the 6x out for the 12x if I wanted, but the Sako is offered as part of an "Estate," with no sales tax, but I don't know if he will deal more....
I figure if he takes $900 without tax it will be the same as the 700 with tax...so they are pretty much equal...
I should post a poll...
