A few years years ago I got the bug for another Mannlicher stocked rifle and looked at a number of high priced Sakos. I really liked the longer barreled L-46s but ran into a like new L-461 with the stock shortened and got it for a great price. I'm vertically challenged so it was to be cut down anyway so this one sàve me the work and saved my pocket book too.
It is one of my favorite çoyote hunting rifles, 52gr Speer HPs over a mild dose of Exterminator. My only gripe is that you can't mount even a Leupold 1-4x20 in low rings. I have a Leupold 2-7 compact on it in low rings but it does lack FOV even on 2x.
