I doubt I'll ever make it back to Africa, and there is nothing here that I would need a 375 for, so I am thinking of finding it a new home... Just hard to finally let go. It's a Sako AV in 375 H&H LEFT HAND with a Leupold 1.5X5 scope and a recoil reducer in the stock. What would be a reasonable price to ask for this rifle? Maybe that will convince me to let it go.

Message me if you come up with a price on it. I sold 3 Sako AV's in the last year. 416 rem mag, 338 win mag & .30-06. Got between $700-$1000 for each. All right handed...the 416 had a McMillan stock. "Let me start off with two words: Made in America" | |||

A lot depends on condition. $800 to &1,200 covers it. The A-5 Hunter was the Apex of Sako development. All down hill since then. | |||

Well the gun shop that I sold the Sako AV .416 wants to get rid of it (African Calibers don't sell well around here) Guess I may be getting it back soon for less than I sold it to them for. It had lots of recoil but the action and nice stock make it worth owning again "Let me start off with two words: Made in America" | |||

I like the Sako AV Mannlicher stocked, 20" barreled carbine in .375 H&H Mag. Very light and handy. I have one with a 30mm main tube Kahles Helia C 1.1-4x24mm scope on top. Total weight with scope comes in under 9.5 lbs. The whole rig would probably go for around $2,000-2,200. Just the rifle, probably around $1,500. Yours, being the more common rifle and left-handed, and with the Leupold on top, would probably go for around $1,000-1,200. Without the scope, probably between $800-900.

You take a hit on lefties..I know of a couple that sold for $850 and another that sold for $650, but to a dealer..Id think $900 would be a good average... Betther yet go elk or bear hunting, its a great elk, bear caliber.. The .375 is a great deer rifle, the bullet are tough and all shots are pass throughs and very little meat damage occurs due to the lack of expansion, and the deer run maybe 50 yards and leave a big blood trail..Most of the plainsgame in Africa are shot with big bores..Many Americans think they will blow a deer in half, but that's not right..A 270 or 06 will show more bloodshot meat than your .375..and you can also load it down to 30-30 velocity but shoot a 300 gr. bullet..keep shots off bone as a rule. Keep that gun, its a good'un.. Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||
