Nice rifles you have over there in Katy sir. My guys and I put the plumbing and AC in Katy Taylor high school in 77-78. It was my first big job as a superintendent. We made good money on it.

Man I wish I’d have gotten into the sakos earlier in life. I’ve got a pile of 75’s, but there’s a lot of older ones I’d have liked to have bought when they were affordable. The 17 Remingtons have alluded me. I’ve got a nib I 75 action that’s gonna be a 17 someday. Great pics by everyone who shared! Maybe I’ll get mine out and get a pic to share.

My AI (and first Sako) bought in 1990, made in ‘88. .17 Rem wearing a 4.5x14x40 Vari-X3. Love this rifle.

I have a couple that have been down the road and back a few times. This is an old 222 Remington that still shoots great as long as I shoot light bullets. I think is has a 1 in 16 inch twist. Fun to shoot and a great rifle for scouting the woods. This one is an old 308 I found in the used and abused rack at the gun shop. It came with a great bore and a beat up exterior that kept the asking price low and the selling price even lower. It has some small pits scattered along the barrel and action, but cutting the barrel back a couple of inches took care of the worst of it and the rifle is much more handy. It is out for some cerakote now and hopefully it will come back looking much better. While it has seen better days the rifle shoots great and is slick as butter.
