Had a Sako Riihimaki for a while in .222. Loved it. The dealer called for it back as he had bought some stolen guns and it was in the batch. I'm still looking. Vixen ok as well.

Neighbor kid has the described Tikka. It shoots lights out, but there is no soul.

I see that the new Zastavia is polished outside and nicely blued. The crap is the wood finish and the inside of the works. I can handle that work, if it comes to it.

SSV, the single shot heavy bbl does not turn my crank. Already have the G2.

I supposed I could adjust to the safety and magazine on the CZ, but I'm not in a rush.

I actually have the cash for a new Sako. Just seems dumb to take the instant depreciation on the new model. Used, is another matter. Buy right and there is little to no loss of value if one takes care of it.

Thanks, I'll keep looking. Your input is greatly appreciated.
