Re: Sako Mannlicher?

Tom:

I couldn't pull up the pix so I'm taking the fellow's word that it is a Stoeger import.

Is it an old AI action? Must be if it is a Stoeger.

If so, I sold tons of them in various calibers to .375 in the plain hunter grade and regular rifles in the Finnbear grade.

GREAT rifle.

BTW: To me, a "Mannlicher" is a true Mannlicher. These guns merely have a long fore stock, but THAT doesn't take a thing away from them.

So what...the old SAKO is a GREAT action, and one that doesn't get its just deserts. I have a .375 I'll not part with, and I wish I had a stable full of them.

Did I mention it is a great rifle??

SAKO should have stuck with the old action IMO, it was a classic, totally reliable. I really like them.

Not sure what they go for these days, but did I mention it is a GREAT rifle...???
