I am thinning the herd and this LSA is on the block. The rifle is chambered in 243 Win. The metal is in good condition with only minor marks, a rub in the bluing about mid barrel(vehicle rifle rack?) and a scratch on L side of receiver. However someone took off the front and rear sites. The wood has several scratches and dings, nothing horrid but never the less there are several of them. Barrel is of Bofors steel. There is one magazine with the rifle. Everything fuctions as it should and the rifle will shoot 1 MOA with select handloads, I didn't try any factory ammo. The rings will go with the rifle but I am keeping the scope unless you want to add an additional $200. Scope is a Leupold M8 6x with a Duplex reticle. As you see it the rifle weighs 7 pounds 4 ounces. I would like to get $700 shipped for this rifle. If your FFL won't receive from me add $50 to come from my FFL. Pics will be forthcoming. Thank you.

Maybe they don't realize that this is a Sako rifle.

I have the LSA 65 long action version in 30-06 and it is an exceptionally nicely built rifle. Stacks 155 Scenars quite nicely. These are sleepers in the rifle world. Most don't have any idea about them.
By the way, reference rings/bases. Out of curiosity one day, I checked and the hole spacing was the exact same for a T3. My LSA wears Talley one piece rings for a T3.
That made life easy.

Keep looking. :-) This rifle has the milled slot as a ring mount. No holes in the rings or receiver. Last I looked these rings were close to $100/set.

Trying to list pic of three shot group. Rifles are excellent values that was my 308. I have one in 243 also and it shoots the same and love it.
