I looked at 2 rifles a couple days ago.
A husqvarna 1600 and a sabatti classic . Both chambered in 6.5x55. Both firearms are in excellent condition and priced within a few dollars.
Should I buy one over the other? I have other Huskies and like them but I was kinda thinking about trying something different. Is one a superior firearm?
All thoughts,opinions are welcome.
 
I love my HVA 1600.

Sabatti Classic Hunter is a beaut.

I think the Husky is going to be more durable and reliable.

Sabatti may be hard to get parts for in the future.

But you can't go wrong.
 
The Sabatti isn't very rare, it is identical to the Rover 870 as they call it now. Think of it as a budget Bergara B14.
Most people would pick the Husqvarna first but you already have some.
 
Sabbatti are cast receivers, blasted and blued, very cheaply made and finished rifles.
HVA are much better built and finished, CRF that almost feels like a push feed when working the action.

The years OP is looking at had good to great finish depending on "trim level", but the recent models have really cheap finish.
