Re stocked and re barreled 222, shoots far better than a lightweight has any business shooting: Pretty decent and straight wood grain might be helping that: LOVE God, LOVE your family, LOVE your country, LIKE guns and sports.

My only thumbhole stocked rifle. Sako L-461 action: Bought it for the wood and action, barreled and scoped it as needed: extra wide and flat forend rides nicely on sandbags: Probably have to sell both of these Sako's, but I have sure enjoyed them these past 15 or so years.

My dad passed away the end of last year, this was his rifle. He bought it new I think in 1971 or 1972, its a .308 Forester with plenty of "character" on the stock. I doubt its has 250 rounds put through it, but its been carried a lot of miles. I'll probably replace the scope and take it hunting one day. I wouldn't change nuthin on that rifle, if it was good enough for dad, it would be good enough for me. ^This
