Not that anyone cares...
The one Sako I looked at was a "family heirloom" but appeared to be more of a "family canoe paddle" with GunBroker pricing. Not sure that beat is even close to the correct term.
Visited a LGS yesterday that had 2 new M70 Featherweights (one in 270), 3 Super Grades, and 2 Alaskans. Those are the first M70s I have seen in years and the most I have seen in one spot. They also had a couple of Tikkas and new M700s. I'll admit that the M70s, although wasn't fond of the maple stocks on the Super Grade (personal preference), were very nice and it was refreshing to fondle something other than a Ruger American or Savage Axis or some other plastic rifle. Not sure I'm remotely prepared to pay the price for a new M70.
It had been a while since I have been to that shop and was surprised at the number of used rifles for sale. Prices were high.
The search will continue.
