Re: Got a Sauer 100? Step Inside...

Thanks Postman and Von Sauer!

It's a neat rifle. There is some confusion over the 100 and 101. From the outside she looks I emailed the company and was told the structural difference is that the 101 has a press fitted and pinned barrel receiver interface and the bolt locks directly into the barrel, while the 100 has a traditional threaded barreled action.

The rifles have excellent reviews for accuracy. I can't comment on bench accuracy much as I don't shoot off the bench much. We shoot almost 100% from field positions. The Prvi bullets I use probably aren't capable of the finest accuracy either but I love the performance on deer, black bear and elk I've gotten in 9.3x57 and my 9.3x62 carbine and I have tons of them.

Here is the rifle. Scope is Leupold 3.5-10 Plex and I also have an old Burris 1.75-5 w/ German #4 set up in the same Warne mounts as a spare if needed. Trigger is 2.2 pounds a perfectly crisp. I have to decide if I'm going to paint this thing to match one of my camo'd AR's. LOL.

The groups were shot from sitting on the ground, elbows rested on knees. Range 100 meters/109 yards.

I think this thing will be pretty useful as we have made some management changes on the ground here and should have some prospect for elk we didn't have for a few years.
