Sako-addicted
The Model 85 is notorious for having the ejected casings hit the scope or scope turrets. Most end up falling back into the action & not ejecting clear so another round can't be chambered, so consider yourself lucky that they actually clear the action. There is a post here that details a possible fix which involves machining the extractor to more tightly grip the rim so that the ejector can then clear it from the action. Unfortunately Beretta has not dealt with this OBVIOUS design flaw & 85 owners are stuck with this problem. Another example of why Beretta's purchase of Sako has lead to a decline in the product. My advice, if you don't want to have ejection problems or scope damage, is to buy a L or A Series Sako from the 60's to the 90's & sell your 85. Anything prior to Beretta is a better Sako no matter what the condition. Just my two cents!
