Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Sako 243 Varmint Rifle Left hand thumbhole/ Right hand action

I have been asked to sell this rifle for a left handed friend. This work was done in the early 80's by me with his right hand barreled action with the heavy 24" barrel in the white.The barrel is 3/4" at the muzzle and the rifle as seen weighs 12 lbs with the scope. I am pretty sure the scope doesn't go with it, but the Sako rings do.
As you can see, the Bishop stock and lamination's date both me and the rifle.
It is a very good shooter, and has killed a few coyotes but not used much and treated nicely. The barrel isn't marked, and my friend can't remember who the maker is. He thinks his brother had it barreled at Belgrade Mt. Maybe David Gentry!
I really don't know what to ask, but I will take a guess and entertain good offers. (Offers and suggestions by PM please.) I realize it may be necessary to separate the stock from the bld. action, and we may be able to work something out .
I have many pics and quite a few answers, so feel free to ask.
Oh yeh, I may be too high or too low, but here goes! Let's try $800.00 shipped.

Thanks for looking,
Ken

Kenny The last thing I need is another.243 cal rifle but I just have to say you did a heck of a job fitting that stock. If I was in the market for another 243 I'd be all over this rifle. I.m as right handed as can be but shoot left handed. Nice Job and good luck with the sale

Thanks, I appreciate that. I do think that the rifle would look good on you though. 😁
