Which one is 32% off?

The Sako TRG-22 displays on their website as "32% off" (as of Dec 19, 2022) but this is incorrect. The 6.5 Phosphated Creedmoor variant with pic rail is listed as $4480.00 (down from $5199.99 original price) and the .308 blued barrel (no pic rail included) is listed as 3516.00 (down from 4225.00). The page is getting the 32% figure by comparing the discounted .308 price against the maximum 6.5CM price.

(3516.00-5199.99)/5199.99 = -32.4%

So the true discount is:
~16.7% for the TRG-22 .308 win
~13.8% for the TRG-22 6.5CM.

I wonder if they hired someone who was previously selling cars?

Like advertising a Colt at 50% off the price of an Ed Brown.

I tought there was a CGN rule about honest advertising.

Looks like they quietly changed the thread title to "Save on select Sako Rifles" instead of "Save up to 32% on select Sako Rifles". Problem solved

You've done well to politely point out this mathematical discrepancy. Truth in advertising is very important to myself and I am sure a lot of others on this website.

range view sports is known to the inflated price.
So their regular price is usually 10-15% more than other dealers in Ontario.
In rare case do they have any true on-sell after their bogus discount
