Rather nasty morning out, so what the hey!
My taste in rifles has evolved over the last half century, but Sako's were my first luv'.
Walked into the LGS many years ago when I first started collecting Sako's.
BAMMO, there it was!
At that time I was financially embarrassed and had to put this on lay-away.
Paid it out @ $25 per week, IIRC.
Even then many of the Sako's I encountered in my circuit of Pawn Shops and LGS's looked like thy had been in battle, or were stocked with "sapwood".
Not this one. It was pristine.
This one has 1 in 16 twist and with the 43 Gr. TSX
It remains my dedicated Turkey Gittr'
Come on April 1st.
ya!
