Sauer 202 .375 / .300WM Should I Keep Her?
As many of you know, I think the Sauer 202 is the finest bolt action rifle ever produced (just my personal opinion). I have owned two fo them for several years. I sold the .270Win yesterday. I currently have the other, a two barrel set in .375 H&H and .300WM for sale on Gunsinternational to help pay for a double rifle.

While out zeroing in my new Browning High Wall in .22-250, I decided to take the Sauer 202 in .375 out to shoot while the barrel cooled on the .22-250.

These photos are of the Sauer and yesterday's target at 50 yards using open sights and Federal Factory Power Shock 300gr Soft Points.

Should I keep her? It's an mighty nice two barrel set for Africa or Alaska, and the .300WM shoots scary tight groups.

mdstewart: for whatever it's worth, I have the Sauer Hatari 2 barrel set in .300 Winchester Magnum and .458 Lott. I love this gun, and could not see getting rid of it.....it is way more accurate than I am.

Now that I know what I'm doing, I can do it in under 10 minutes, probably 5 minutes. I switched barrels while talking a potential customer throught the process over the phone. It was 10 minutes max while talking him through it.
