I just picked up what appears an unfired and mint condition Sako AV in .270 Win. I've recently learned that I'm assuredly suffering Sakosis. I hope there isn't a cure because I could be good for a few more.

Here are pics of the rifle that's in transit to me. I can't wait to get my hands on her. BTW, I picked her up for a grand. Ask me & I'd say she has mule deer written all over her:

Do you guys see any flaws on her? I know there will be if I get drawn for San Juan deer next season.

That's an expensive ailment, but good taste in rifles. Sako's are my favorite. My Finn light 75 is a machine. There is no cure, but shooting helps some.

Sako rifles are excellent, top 3 of production made rifles IMO. You didn't get hurt on the price either. Congrats.
