Does anyone have insight into this rifle, I would like to hear what you have to say as I'm considering purchasing one, as a coyote exterminator.

Would also appreciate Wolfkiller's take on this rifle if he happens to view this thread.

Sako is a top quality rifle, what's not to like? My Vixen in .222 is my favorite rifle.

Default Saving $$$

I am saving up for the 22-250.

Have the Tikka varmint stainless now. Shoots like a dream. It will be for sale to fund the Sako. I have 3 Sako rifles now and can't wait for the 22-250. The quality workmanship and accuracy are all well worth it.

But it and enjoy.

I've got one in .223, wonderful rifle a little heavy but the action is so smooth and it shoots great, if I do my part it will shoot under 3/4 moa with Winchester white box. It's probably one of my favorite rifles.
