Hi folks! After selling my Sako Forrester .243 5 years ago due to not using it, my circumstances have changed and I am Thinking about getting another sako and like the look and performance of the Sako 85 varmint .243 .There now seems to be alot of people using moderators? my questions are:-
1. Do moderators silence the shot that much?
2. Does having the shorter factory threaded barrel affect the accuracy?
3. Does having that huge moderator stuck on the front affect the balance of the rifle?
Having never used a moderator on full bore rifles before any feedback would be appreciated.
