The Sako S491 is a bolt-action rifle model known for its accuracy, particularly when chambered in calibers like 6mm PPC. These rifles were manufactured by the Finnish company Sako and are often sought after for varmint hunting and target shooting due to their robust construction and precision engineering.
The 6mm PPC cartridge, or Palmisano & Pindell Cartridge, is a highly regarded round in the shooting community, especially in benchrest competitions, where it is known for its inherent accuracy. A 24" barrel is a common length for rifles chambered in 6mm PPC, providing a good balance between velocity and maneuverability.
Rifles from the Sako S491 line are recognized for their quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. A rifle described as being in "excellent overall condition" would typically mean that it shows minimal signs of wear and has been well-maintained. This can include the condition of the metal finish, the wood stock, and the bore.
