This is very nice Sako with a new Wilson stainless barrel in 6.5-284. The gun has shot 1" 4-shot groups at 200 for me without much load development at all. It has less than 50 rounds on the new barrel. It's a great hunting rifle.

Action: Sako L61R
Stock: unsure but maybe Bell & Carlson bedded.
Barrel: Wilson sporter contour .685" at muzzle 26"
Trigger is a Timney and breaks really crisp, as they always do.
Scope-I will keep the scope.
Bases and rings: new Sakos 30mm (these are really expensive!!! Yikes.).

Price: $1300 shipped to your FFL.

Thank you. You’re the second person who has said that it’s a McMillan stock.
 
Any offers?
Tempted, one of my favorite calibers and looks like a nice rifle!
Can you get proper eye relief with the Leupold? that's probably the same scope I'd put on it, but with those rings it doesn't seem to have much room for adjustment.
 
It fits me fine and my son also has had no problems with it.
I think the eye relief on our modern scopes makes it really generous.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
