These sights are equipped with first focal plane FinnDot reticles ( a regular mil-dot reticle with the addition of holdover ( stadiametric ) rangefinding brackets for 1 metre high or 0.5 metre wide targets at 400 , 600 , 800 , 1,000 and 1,200 m ) . Reticle illumination is provided by a tritium ampule embedded in the elevation turret . The elevation turrets have 100-1,400 m Bullet Drop Compensation ( BDC ) knobs calibrated for the Lapua Lock Base B408 cartridges the FDF issues its TKIV 2000 marksmen . FDF snipers are trained to compensate BDC-induced errors that inevitably occur when the environmental and meteorological circumstances deviate from the circumstances the BDC was calibrated for . The reticle elevation has 0.25 mil ( 0.25 mrad ) adjustment intervals ( total elevation range = 18.6 mils ) , while the windage has 0.1 mil adjustment intervals . The FDF believes 0.25 mil elevation intervals are easier and quicker to use with Arctic mittens and that the difference between 0.1 and 0.25 mil adjustment intervals is negligible for anti-personnel sniping ( 0.1 mil at 1,400 m = 14 cm ( 0.3437747 MOA ) , 0.25 mil at 1,400 m = 35 cm ( 0.8594367 MOA ) ) . All vital screw slots are designed to be operated with the rim of .338 Lapua Magnum cartridges instead of screwdrivers

The Sako TRG is a bolt-action sniper rifle line designed and manufactured by the Finnish firearms manufacturer, SAKO of Riihimäki. The TRG-21 and TRG-22 are designed to fire standard .308 Winchester/7.62×51mm NATO sized cartridges, while the TRG-41 and TRG-42 are designed to fire more powerful and dimensionally larger .300 Winchester Magnum (7.62×67mm) magnum and .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6×70mm) super magnum cartridges. They are available with olive drab green, desert tan/coyote brown, dark earth or black stocks, and are also available with a folding stock. The sniper rifles are normally fitted with muzzle brakes to reduce recoil, jump and flash. The Sako factory TRG muzzle brakes vent sideways and are detachable. Generally TRGs are outfitted with a Zeiss or Schmidt & Bender PM II telescopic sight with fixed power of magnification or with variable magnification. Variable telescopic sights can be used if the operator wants more flexibility to shoot at varying ranges, or when a wide field of view is required. In October 2011, Sako introduced the Sako TRG M10 Sniper Weapon System. It was designed as a user configurable multi calibre modular system and does not share its receiver and other technical features with the rest of the TRG line.
