The sako 85 is an excellent rifle, in either .243 or 6.5x55, very well built and excellent to shoot. Ask me how i know this well two of my friends will shoot nothing but sako's. If money's tight look for the 75 model some are still left.
Sako is build quality, that will last, in both the 6.5 and .243 shooting 1/2 inch no problem with reloading. I would however recommend the sako 85 stainless synthetic. you won't be disapointed.
