Yep I went for the Meopta Meopro 6-18x50 on top of the A7.
Took her out today and she shot 5 shot sub MoA all day straight out of the box. Thinking the trigger could use a little adjustment, nevertheless it’s a good rig straight up.
I tried the 143 ELD X today and had the best results with 41.5gn AR2209.
Will head back out towards weeks end and confirm those loads. Will seat projectiles a little linger this time to refine the accuracy. Absolute cracker. Love that A7 to bits.
Mate can’t thank you enough for the recommendation.

What OAL did you try?

EDIT: Strike that, just saw your message - 2.850"

Both Sako A7's i owned had the ejection issue as well as an 85 in 223 . But my two other 85's in 243 and 270 did not. Go figure??

Anyway only have the 85 Finnlight in 270 Win at the moment..... in the Sako marque as well as a Tikka T3 Stainless Hunter in 25-06.
