Does anyone know anything about the Beretta Matos?  I heard that they were dropping the line to push Sako/Tikkas, which Beretta acquired.

They seem to be clearing them out (v. good prices).  I've been told that they are Dakota barrelled actions with Italian wood, assembled in Maryland.

Regards,

Charlie,
I too heard the Mato's were the Dakota Hunter action.  While not quite the Model 76, it is still a dandy.  The only ones I've seen have been pretty expensive and a little out of my league.  I hope they don't drop them, but sure do wish they were a little more affordable.  I don't have one or have shot one, but I know exactly one person that has one and he loves his.  He likes it more than his pre '64 Model 70.

to charliez... I bought a Dakota hunter barrelled action in 330 dak w/ a ss 24" no.3 barrel from  dak arms a couple years ago... stocked it with a Brown Precision stock. It's accurate, well made...a nice rifle. The Mato is the same action.  Happy trails.
