Since I can't remember ever seeing a Sako pic thread I thought I would start one... grin

My first Sako. I had always heard about .5 inch rifles but had never owned one until I bought this one. Sako 75 in 300 RUM with 4.5x14x40. When it was new it would average in .3's with 180 grain partition. I hope my children give this gun to their children.

After owning the 300 RUM I have been on the downhill slide ever since...grin.

Searching for a L579 Varmint in a 22-250, someday I'll find the one.

Both made in the 60's and great shooters.

No pics of my Sako w/ a Douglas barrel in 7x57; it started out as a new, un-barrelled Sako action purchased in 1984.

Wish the actions only were still available from Beretta....

Colt Coltsman in .243 with a Minox ZA5 3-15x42. It has a Sako L579 action but has Colt markings. Its one of my favorite rifles.
