THIS IS A SAKO S491 VARMINT RIFLE IN .223 CALIBRE, THREADED 5/8" UNEF. TWIST RATE IS 1 IN 8".

SO, IT'S THEREFORE A PERIOD SAKO SHORT-ACTION RIFLE [ S491 IS .222/.223 CLASS, S591 IS .243/.308, 691 IS .270/.30-06 ET CETERA ], AND PRECEDES THE MODEL 75. SO, PROBABLY BUILT AROUND 1990; I WAS THERE SELLING TONS OF THEM NEW...

I JUST BOUGHT IT RECENTLY, AS A .222; THE BORE IS/WAS MINT, BARRING AN ODD RING OF RUST, SO I'VE HAD MR NEIL MCKILLOP PULL THAT TUBE AND HE'S FITTED A S/H FACTORY .223 FAST-TWIST BARREL TO THE RIFLE  AND THAT'S A VERY GOOD THING INDEED.

CONDITION IS MORE OR LESS NEAR NEW; IT'S BARELY MARKED EXTERNALLY, AND INSIDE IT'S COMPLETELY LIKE NEW. THERE'S NO PITS, THERE'S NO FIRE-CRACKING. IF THERE WAS THEN I'D BLOODY WELL SAY SO; THAT'S THE POINT...

THE WORST I CAN SAY OF THIS RIFLE IS THE COLOUR DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE BARREL AND ACTION. IF YOU WANT IT SMARTLY CERAKOTED AND ALL MATCHING, CRACK ON... I FIGURE FOR ME IT MAKES THE RIFLE JUST A TOUCH TOO MUCH MONEY.

THAT'S ALL FOLKS...

THE OVERALL LENGTH IS 43", THE FLOORPLATE MAGAZINE HOLDS 6 ROUNDS. THE TRIGGER BREAKS AT 1lb 14oz AVERAGE.

IMPORTANT NOTICE; FINALLY, WE WERE ABLE TO LOSE OUR TERRIBLE-QUALITY LANDLINE... DON'T USE IT, IT NO LONGER EXISTS!
