Posted By: K22 Sako P94S Finnfire - 06/17/21
The Sako P94S was generally a highly sought after rimfire rifle, but now it seems the that has slowed down a bit. Is it because of all the new rimfires that have come out? I ask because I noticed some on GB with no one bidding on.

I really like my FinnFire Range. I've had a few other FinnFire's and all are solid performers.

I think the main difference is that the Vudoo's and other newer options are built for most popular matches like NRL22, while the Sako's are more of a classic rimfire.

I got a good friend of mine hooked on shooting rimfires and as soon as he saw my Quad Range...he had to have one. I showed him my FinnFire Range first since I had thoughts of selling it and he had no interest in it...the Quad had more of a new feel...

To me, the FinnFire's are as classic as it gets...

I agree with you Rolltide.
I love those classic rimfires.
The accuracy of the P94's is what many rimfire companies are trying to achieve. I suppose the down side is they look like a Classic rifle instead of the modern chassis style that is all the rage.

I prefer the classics. Sako makes great rimfires; I was always more interested in Kimbers or I'd have one.

Got a Sako P94 with a Lilja barrel bull barrel, Jewell trigger, McMillian stock, and Leupold 6.5x20 EFR scope and its a tackdriver, you can watch bullets going through the same hole at 50 yards

I have a P94S Sporter LNIB, still lookin for a Varmint to pair with it.

K22: About 5 years ago I bought myself a minty Sako P94S heavy barrel Rifle in 22 L.R.
I love it!
Every thing about it is excellent plus.
I posted a review of this P94S Varmint on this site back in 2,016 - interesting thread it turned into - look it up.
It is next in the "rotation" when the crops get cut this week and next for a return to the Ground Squirrel Safaris.
Since buying it and becoming so enthralled with it and its performance/looks/fit/feel/function I have NOT seen another one for sale - anywhere.
And I get around!
Maybe they are just not available/being manufactured?

VarmintGuy,
I've seen some posted on Gun Broker along with a sporter version.

K22: Against my better judgement I went to gunbreaker and viewed their offerings in regards to the Sako P94-S model - they had 5 (five) listed and nary a bid on any of those?
I do know I paid WAY less for my P94-S than the minimum bids of all of those listed.
Of course a lot has changed in the nearly 5 years since I bought mine.
Anyone know if they are in current production by Sako?

The P94S finnfire is no longer in production. Sako has replaced it with the finnfire 2 and quad.

I bought my P94S Finnfire Sporter new in 1999/2000 and it had a Burris 6x32 A/O Hunter Benchrest scope on it for years .
It is my favorite rimfire sporter. When I pull it from the safe I cannot help but smile , beautiful European walnut stock, great fit and finish and very nice trigger
I have a Kimber K22 Hunter , a Tikka T1X and several CZ 452's and the Sako is still the king of the hill when it comes to 50 yard accuracy .
The magazines are a bit pricey but you only live once.
If I could find one at decent price I'd buy another .
The Finnfire II is not the same gun .
Over the years I have not seen many P94S rifles new or used for sale .

At the price I'm seeing Kimber K22's and Sako Quad and the P94 selling for recently I was surprised the P94S sporter had zero bids on with the starting price below $1000.

I had one years ago when they first came out, one hell of an accurate sporter, with match ammo and a Leupold 6.5-20 EFR there was nothing at a local sporter match that could touch it. I have a T1X now thats very close to it tho.

And to think they did it with wood, blued steel, and no pillarbedding.

Could’ve bought a sporter with a lilja barrel at a gun show last year for $1,000. Kicking myself for not snagging it.
