    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    One from the archive. The only Sako I have ever owned. A beautiful looking rifle but I never fired it and ended up selling it unfired.

    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    I sold a few of my unfired Sakos to a forum member 3 or 4 years ago. My Finnwolf is the gap in the safe I miss the most. Unfired .308.

    Couple of 6x45's that I have. One built on an old L461 Varmint 223, which was in a homemade stock but I slipped it into a spare I had.
    Other is an A1, which is now in a carbon fibre stock.
    Last one is an A1 6.5 Grendel that I built from parts, this CF stock is now on the A1 6x45. I sold the Grendel on, with regret.
