Due to the fever of the black weekend. Something had to find a new warm home. The Check out at Cabela's was pretty fast and straight forward. 5-6 double verification, no background check. Everything went very smoothly

A new money drain, a little drain that is....

Sako A7 with 24.3" Semi Heavy fluted Barrel, blued in 0.243" (6mm) twist rate is 1:10 (bullets up to 87gr). B&C stock in desert color
Accuracy guaranteed at 5-shots 1-MOA or less.

Regular Cabela's price $1,299. Selling price $840 + tax = $909 out of the door.

Few left at Allen's store.

The most limiting factor is 1:10 twist rate.

Vortex 2.5-10x32mm Viper PST MRAD FFP. I mounted one on my Gunsite Scout recently, and this may be the perfect variable power scope - particularly for a small caliber centerfire bolt gun. 10x is more than enough magnification for the ranges you're likely to shoot .243 at, and the scope is smaller and lighter than more powerful optics. It has an illuminated milling reticle, and nice clean glass, and is made to the same standards Vortex mai gains in the rest of the Viper PST lineup — which is to say very good quality at an affordable price point.

I feel it is eager to please. It needs some dressing and some food to rock and roll.
Aim Small miss small.
Sako deserves this scope

Not only knows not to go off in the house, but appears well behaved. Not even making noise unless it's defending it's master or commanded to do so.
