THIS IS A USED RIFLE BEING OFFERED ON CONSIGNMENT, IN VERY GOOD CONDITION OVERALL, FEATURING A 24" BLUED HEAVY BARREL. THE BORE IS BRIGHT AND THE RIFLING IS SHARP AND CLEARLY VISIBLE. IT HAS A RIGHT HAND BOLT AND OPERATES ON A SINGLE SHOT ACTION. THE STOCK IS A BEAUTIFUL WALNUT WITH A RAISED COMB AND A SAKO LOGO RED RECOIL PAD. THIS RIFLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A TWO STAGE MATCH TRIGGER THAT BREAKS AT 1LB. THERE ARE SOME INTERESTING MARKINGS ON THE RIFLE; THE IMPORTATION MARKINGS ARE LOCATED ON THE BOTTOM OF THE HEAVY BARREL, AS IT WAS IMPORTED BY STOEGER. ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE BARREL, JUST AHEAD OF THE ACTION, IT IS MARKED SAKO 6PPC USA (MADE IN FINLAND), AND THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RECEIVER DISPLAYS SAKO PPC B 654, WHICH ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH, INDICATES THAT THE 'B' REFERS TO THE ACTION SIZE AND IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE L461 MODEL, COMMONLY KNOWN AS VIXEN. THE SERIAL NUMBER CONSISTS OF THREE DIGITS. IT COMES WITH REDFIELD BASES AND RINGS, AS WELL AS A LEUPOLD VARI-X III 6.5-20X40 GLOSS BLACK SCOPE WITH AN ADJUSTABLE OBJECTIVE AND A FINE DUPLEX RETICLE, COMPLETE WITH THE CORRECT SUNSHADE. THERE IS SOME DISCREPANCY REGARDING THE MANUFACTURING DATE, BUT RESEARCH SUGGESTS IT WAS MADE BETWEEN 1987 AND 1990. THIS OFFERING ALSO INCLUDES APPROXIMATELY 175 PIECES OF BRASS IN VARIOUS STAGES OF LOADING, WITH ABOUT 75 OF THEM ALREADY LOADED, ALONG WITH A SET OF RELOADING DIES AND SOME ADDITIONAL RELOADING TOOLS.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE AMMUNITION CANNOT BE SHIPPED WITH THE RIFLE DUE TO LEGAL RESTRICTIONS AND WILL BE SENT SEPARATELY. THE RIFLE WILL BE SHIPPED IN A HARDCASE PROVIDED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER.
