One is a three digit, and the other is in the 2000’s. I really like the old Sako’s. Sold my deluxe’s, I like these better.

It was his favorite rifle, its been carried/hunted plenty but I doubt its had more than 250 rounds through it. He bought it early in 1971, I have the tag for it showing it was inspected on 11-13-1970. It will have a new scope on it in about a week. I have a cow elk tag in his/our favorite elk hunting spot and plan on hunting with it so hope it brings me a bit of luck. "Rather hunt Mule deer than anything else" "Team 7MM-08"

A tack driver but far too heavy for a 243. I inherited my father’s High Power this year that was his favorite. I’ll carry it this year.

First rifle owned that would group MOA or better. Had some stock finish issues early on but nothing a refinish job couldn't cure. Have fun shooting it against a much newer Savage M10HB - each has its own merits. Homesteader
