It was still fitted with the original scope which was in good nick but I didn’t like the reticle at all so I swapped it for a Swaro.

I still need to find the right load for it!

Very nice. I have a Carl Gustaf 3000 which has a Sauer 80 action. Silky smooth action. I also have a mint Sauer 90 in 25.06. You bought a quality rifle there and in what looks nice grade and condition.

yep, the Carl Gustavs are almost identical as are the Sauer 90s apart from the safety catch. I love mine to pieces.

Check out Chris Fishers you tube clip of him testing one of his carbon stocks. No way a wooden one would handle that punishment.

Could you post a link please?

These guys have had the odd Browning sako rifle for sale. Had a quick look but couldnt see any. Still its worth drooling over some of their older sako parts...
Tryed them a couple of years back for a set of older sako mounts,, unfortunatley at that point they wouldnt send to NZ..

I think you mean Johny McCanns maybe? Hey I'll flick up a pic of The Sako A1 .223 when I get it back from Allan Carr!!

I thought Allan Carr had retired?

Yep these guys have some amazing stuff. I bought a rifle off them and other collectable items when I lived in Canada.
