Sako L16R

My L61R looks just like Johnn's AIII .270 but is in 30-06. It is one of the smoothest, most accurate, easy to shoot rifles I have ever owned. It holds point of impact year after year even with the full length walnut stock. It shoots 165 and 180 grain ammo from any maker or hand load that I have tried into virtually the same good group. It is also too heavy, kinda awkward looking with the overly square edges on the stock, but is very, very well built. For me it is a keeper.

Full stocks are purdy... I like a heavy rifle - which is one of the reason I like the Sakos.
 
Fassteel has asked me to post these pictures for him. He will post the details.

The prettiest L61R I ever saw in 25-06 mid seventies vintage and to this day still unfired.
I bought it as a sight unseen upgrade from my Stevens 200 in 25-06, turned out to be quite an upgrade. FS
