Well, I though I'd never part with this rifle, but I never shoot it and need to free up some funds. I'd rate this rifle at 98%. I bought it several years ago and sighted it in with Rem .223 factory 55gr soft point ammo(shot well under an inch. I smoked a few crows with it, cleaned the barrel and put it back in the safe where it has been ever since. -Sako A1. Stoeger import(very similar to L461 action) -.223 Rem, 1:12 twist(I think) -22 7/8" barrel with no sights, or sight holes -unknown round count, but presumed low by the overall condition -Redfield mounts and rings -Leupold Vari X III 3.5-10x40mm (gloss) -Excellent overall fit & finish $1450 shipped and insured to your FFL

Are you willing to separate rifle/scope?
Any trade interests?

is this a heavy barrel? Is it a single shot or does it have an internal magazine?

I just sold one to Cabelas in .222 Rem. Mag.Imported by Browning, for $1080 with no scope, and I am already sorry I did.

Thanks to a campfire member I bought one of these a couple weeks ago. If I could scrape the money together I would buy this one too..

I put this back in the safe a while back after I took pictures and haven't had it out since, so I now want to sell it again. $950 shipped and insured for the rifle and redfield rings, no scope.

That is an awesome price for a little Sako AI. Here in Australia you would sell it in less than one minute at that price. Even at $1200 (bare) it would be gone within a day or two.

LOP?
The bases and rings are two piece, I suppose?

these are TOO SWEET for most to even imagine. I already have two (a 222 and a 223) or would be trying to sell other stuff to get this one.

Still here...$950 shipped. LOP is standard for these Sakos, but I'm not sure what that is

That tells me that you have not sawed it down for a wife or child. Does it look to you to be original, like a 14" LOP that's typical?
