Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Sako Forester 243 sporter-Bofors Steel L579

Selling this nice Sako for my step father, Top_Predator, he is a member here as well. Feel free to ask questions to either of us. I'm just doing this as a favor since I got the whole posting of pictures down pat.

WTS-Sako Forester in 243 win, sporter variety, not to be confused with the varmint configuration. Barrel is clearly stamped Bofors Steel with a SN of 769xx. Condition? Solid 95% or better. Very faint marks on wood and blueing is clean as well. Rifle was purchased by Rick from a friend along with a number of other rifles, some he kept, most he sold. I know Sako guys love the hooded front sight, this DOES NOT have it's factory hood on the front sight. SEE PICTURES. Round count? I would be lying if I gave a figure. Bore looks in order and we've shot it very little but can vouch that it is a shooter with handloads and factory offerings we've tried.

We had intentions of letting one of my twin little sisters use this as their dedicated deer rifle but have since bought them both Ruger 243s. The Rugers we didn't feel bad about chopping the stock on to fit their alligator arms. One being left and the other right handed.

Price? $825 shipped.

Sweet rifle. Too late, as usual.

I have one of these in .222 Rem. Mag. that I would not even let you borrow it for $800.

I also have a couple of old Sako foresters; I might not even let someone ogle one of them for 800 bucks. All kidding aside, fine, fine rifles.
