I think the rifle has been fired, but it may have only been fired at the factory. This thing is super nice and near mint. Supposedly only 500 were ever made in 280 Remington. $1200 OBO.

Only trades I may consider are a like new 60mm Golden Ring spotter (or other with similar eye relief) &/or Slik 634 Pro CF tripod with benro S1 (or similar) head.

Very NICE!

This is the only AV in .280 I've ever seen besides the one I own and it's one of the most accurate rifles I own.

Completely forgot.....

I also have a McMillan stock for this rifle. It's new in the box that I've never even opened. Rifle buyer gets first shot at stock. If he doesn't want it I'll offer to whomever speaks up next. $400.

Love or lust, I don't care which it is. Maybe it's coveting...

Pinnacle of Sako evolution. Gorgeous rifle. I don't know what it is about the campfire but I have purchased 4 A-series Sakos here over the years. (Have one in transit right now). This one pulls hard on the checkbook. Good luck and congrats to whomever buys it.
