SchauckisJoester - try the
Sako Collectors' Club forum, wont' you.
Obviously any Sako owner will be biased - let aone a collector - but you probably find most info there.
I know of one guy and his gun, I've handled it but never shot.
It's awesomely accurate and the action is slick as if it was running on ball-bearings.
Richj's advice regarding the magazine must be sound, indeed.
Parts may be a problem since the gun was never made in large volumes.
It can be scoped as it throws the cases to the right via an ejection port.
The only real problem I know of (sorry I don't have all the details) is that if the action is worked very fast, then (I think this is the problem) the striker spring may bend and be caught in the action. The Sako Collectors' forum can surely give you more insight as to this.
All in all, it's a rare piece for sure and seldom comes out on the market as the owners tend to be very pleased with it.
