First Rifle I used to deer hunt with. was used as payment for dairy debts in the later '70s. I bought it back and redid the stock and bedding. I need to get a front sight. any help with this would be appreciated. Last edited by 1911a1; 11/11/14. Figures don't lie, But Liars figure Assumption is the mother of mistakes

My wife used it on her first buck and we have killed a bunch of deer and hogs with it. Great woods rifle. I looked for one after I used to read John Wooters' articles in Petersens Hunting magazine. He posed with one a few times, and I had to get one. RIP John W. Faith and love of others knows no mileage nor bounds.

Seems like he was always mentioning a Win. 88 in 308 he had sold, even calling out the serial number in one article in hope of buying it back. Fantastic thread by the way. Really enjoying the great pics of Sakos! Last edited by 1911a1; 11/12/14. Figures don't lie, But Liars figure Assumption is the mother of mistakes

Fireball2 Campfire Kahuna Joined: May 2011 Posts: 56,274 Oregon	Now that the big boys have had their glossy fun, let the killers have some quarter. .221 Fireball, set back and rechambered from that bastard of a cartridge, the 222 magnum. That "magnum" is one sorry fit for that tiny little Sako action, and should be shunned by knowledgeable rifleman everywhere. The Fireball, is perfection in design and function, for a lightweight calling rifle. On the plus side of the ledger, with the faster powders, it doesn't singe hair on the close call-ins like the bigger-uns. I call this one, "Properly Incentivized and Managed Range Dogs" "One flew over the cuckoos nest, but it didn't save him" Last edited by Fireball2; 11/12/14. _______________________________________________________ An 8 dollar driveway boy living in a T-111 shack LOL
