I hope your grandkids like it, cause it will certainly last several generations!

Check out The Vintager's website. I have shot alot with these folk. VERY fun way to spend an afternoon. The do mostly shotguns but also double rifles! http://vintagers.org/media Cheers!

I forgot to add - bullet selection is vital! Swift A Frame, Nosler Partition, Norma, Barnes TSX... all good - along with proper placement. Also - LISTEN to you PH! I have spent a ton of time in the woods since I was a kid (now 58) - but I was amazed at the knowledge of my 28 year old PH last...

GREAT question - not much on the forum for this. I am interested as I am doing a giraffe this July. I hunted the Limpopo province in June 2015. I took a gemsbuck, kudu, wildebeast, zebra & a blesbuck all with my PH's 375. All 1 shot kills, all dropped within 0-50 yds... I plan to take a...

KISS - I like to keep it simple. I have a Trijicon with simple post on my DGR rifle. A simple duplex on my regular hunting rifle. I do have a BDC reticle on a CZ 204, but only for use on prairie dogs.... Zeroing in a hunting rifle at 150 yds, i don't need anything fancy from zero to 225 yards...

Mine is BORINGLY ACCURATE, just like all the other Sako's I have owned or hunted with. Very easy to shoot, and I am not a big man. The open sights are the BEST I have ever seen on a rifle.

South Africa again, in July. For a giraffe and possibly two warthogs and who knows what else!!! Also possibly Wyoming pronghorn in September. Almost forgot: a quick hog hunt in Texas next month just before a trade show! Very happy!

I shot one of each last year with a borrowed Sako 375; my PH provided Nosler Partitions. Use a GOOD bullet AND remember shot placement is also just as important!

I had a Weaver 6x on my CZ 22 Hornet for several years & loved it; never felt handicapped. Used it mainly @ my farm for pest control. I just ordered a Leupold FXII 6x for my Kimber 243. I wanted a light set up for antelope & target shooting.

We have sold a good bit of it & I have shot a bit (off season). NO complaints & I found it very accurate. It was, to my understanding, designed around deer hunters needs so I imaging it would be fine... Just my .02 cents!

Albert, I just got a Sako Kodiak 375 last Dec. after going to Africa & shooting a Sako there. I own Renaissance Firearms in Barrington, NH. I am thinking of putting up a bulk order for friends & customers for reloading components so we can save on HAZMAT fees. Let me know if I can help you...

I am 57. I started when I was 20 or 21. I got interested in shooting (mainly handguns, 38 & 357) and a friend at church got me hooked. I would go over to his house, visit with his family(he was @ 25-30 with a young family) & he would show me how to load. I loaded quite a bit on an RCBS...

Also, submitting the guns clean is a BIG plus.... If we have to clean the guns, it takes a big chunk off what we offer & tells us the seller may not have cared well for his guns....

As a dealer, we love to have used guns for sale to our customers. Usually we buy small lots of guns but for something this large we usually prefer to do this on a consignment basis. Typically, we use the blue book, past GB auctions of comparable guns and our knowledge to come up with a value...

Great scope, Great price. I am an FFL with a retail shop & it is @ $100 less than we sell them for. Plus - I used one in Africa last year, shot 5 animals with that scope. All one shot kills, fantastic optics.

Welcome to Africa. I was in Senegal last June waiting to board a daily scheduled flight to Jberg... Plane never showed. Finally someone at SAA says, "oh yes, the flight was canceled". My travel agent was wonderful & got us on the next day's flight & my outfitter was flexable as well, but it...

This is a great deal! We sell these rifles & they have a lot of features. Boringly accurate! You would not go wrong!

I suggest taking a long hard look at the Sako Kodiak 375. Under 2K, Awesome accuracy, tons of features including great sights... A GREAT package... Contact me direct direct if you want....

My wife & I did a hunt last year, then rented a car in Polokwane & drove south to Hluhluwe. Had a great time & never felt unsafe. Use common sense, lock you car, etc & you should be fine. I have traveled all over the world: some places felt uncomfortable,some did. It's no different than in...

Hello! Here is what I did on my 1st safari. I went in with a rough idea of 5-6 animals and a rough budget but nothing too set in stone. I know I did want a Gemsbuck, a Warthog & a Wildebeest. When I got to SA my PH, Diekie Muller, gave me the best advice (in his wonderful Afrikaner's...

Got mine today. VERY well packaged, VERY happy!

Moisin - Congrats on planning your safari! I went last year & am already planning on going back. I used a borrowed rifle from my PH - a Sako 375, older gun with control round feed, even though we only shot plains game with it. Loved it & glad I did use the rifle he suggested. Main reason I...

Years ago I had a Ruger 77/22 with the heavy varmint barrel & laminated stock topped by a Leupold VX2 4-12 with fine crosshair. I was able to get 1" groups with Federal Gold Match. The coolest thing was to be shooting & hear the bullets hit wood & have a spotter see them strike!

I want one! Any links to outfitters in the area would be appreciated.

Folks - only 10 left! This is a STEAL! I am an FFL & have a retail shop & this is WAY under my usual cost!

What airport would one fly into for pick up?

G-96 - excellent stuff. To my knowledge, Thompson Center Arms used it when they were located in NH (I live just a short drive from the site of the old factory). Some of the machinists that have come into my gun shop swore by it.

Lorenzo is a gentleman & FIRST rate engraver. A pleasure to do business with.

I am a Sako dealer & this is an AWESOME deal!

I advise my clients to think / spend as much on optics as the rifle.... We sell Merkel & Steyr & like both. Sauer & Blaser are also excellent. I would take a hard look at used also. You have a wonderful opportunity here!

I have one on my Sako Kodiak 375; red triangle on post - VERY fast to use; VERY high quality: love it!

My wife & I used Drago sling packs. They always stayed in the truck when we stalked... I kept the following in them: light leather shooting gloves (Beretta) a few meds - advil, tums, etc. digital camera, extra battery iPhone (for it's camera) 1/2 roll TP a couple snacks, granola bar, etc a...

I used a VX6 1-6 in SA last year & LOVED it! I put a Trijicon 1-6 on my Sako Kodaik 375 & love it as well.

I always wore long: Vertx brand light canvas type ( am a dealer so where easy to get). My PH wore long. The outfitter/owner & who is also a PH (& his son) always wore shorts & short gaiters over his boots - ever any issues. My wife & I had just spent 2 weeks in equatorial Africa (90-110...

Stunning looking rifle!!!

I used a Leopold VX6 1-6 on the Sako 375 HH I rented in Africa. Longest shot kill was 140 yes. I took a shot in brush at 185 yes but had it deflected & missed. I felt no handicap. I just ordered a Sako Kodiak 375 & plan to put a Trijicon Acupoint 1-6 with the single post & green tritium...

We are Sako dealers as well as Kimber & just about all the rest of the major players. After selling a few to customers & hunting Africa for the 1st time I have ordered myself a Sako Kodiak in 375. I love the open sights & will shoot it that way & also with a Trijicon Acupoint 1-6 scope. I...

Phoenix Phil, Our shop is in Rochester; about 1.25 hours northeast of Nashua. If you are coming up I'll pay for the Chick-Fil-A! Being a native of Atlanta, I sure miss it! Africa, 2015: Wow, where do I start? Our shop is active in donating to the NRA & I go to several banquets during the...

Hello all. a BIG thank you to the owners / founders of this forum. I did my 1st Africa hunt this June & had a BLAST! I have been bitten by the bug & plan to return in 2019. I own a retail store in southern NH called Renaissance Firearms. If any of you are ever in the area come on by &...
