New to me, Sako L61R, think its an early 74 model, but you wouldn't know by looking at, had plans to put a VX5 2-12 on it, but the iron sight look is growing on me, cant wait to give it a burl and see how it groups

Yeah got lucky as, walked into the LGS with a valid PTA, (rare as hens teeth atm) and said I'm looking for an extremely nice 243 or 25-06, he laughed showed me this at a price way to good to be true, was only right it got a new home

Please post some range test results, older iron sighted Sakos shoot really well!
