Is there such a thing of good used tikka sako 270 or am I best buying new.

[sparrow123]

bought my last cf used Sako 85 in 308 no faults. Am I asking for truble looking at used 270?

 

[User00056]

Not at all. What's worrying you? As long as you don't buy it cheap from a grizzled old highland stalker I'm sure you'll be fine

 

[sparrow123]

makeing sure it’s not shot out. Or that it will group something like.

I bought a used Sako 75 in .270 with walnut stock 3 years ago. It had done very little work and shoots very well. I had it screwcut and will keep it until I am too old to go stalking any more. It's ideal as an allrounder that is easy to feed with factory ammo that you can buy in almost any gun shop in the country. There are still 75s in 270 which were taken to Scotland once a year and kept in the cabinet the rest of the time so they have never done much work and are in good condition.

Never herd of them

No one here has which is why they are cheap when they come up. Very high quality blue and steel rifles. AKA Carl Gustav

What you think to laminated stocks?

Good thing about Ivythorn is he has a range so you can probably shoot it

I bought a 6.5 x 55 Sako 85 finnlite from Ivythorn last year shoots spot on.
I’ve just bought another 85 with laminate stock but not shot it yet looks good though

If the seller will let you borsecope it as condition of sale then absolutely.

I understand your concern, quite often used by highland lads doing ‘a few’ deer a year in difficult conditions, you are less likely to find a cabinet queen as oppose to, say….a creedmore !!!

Borescope is a must

Have a word with mark at vale field and game in hickling, Leicestershire. He has a range and will bore scope any rifle too. He might be able to get you what you want. Proper gun shop, no nonsense. He won’t let you leave unless you’re happy.

Most of my rifles have been used never had any problems or issues always shot well bought a few brand new as well that have not shot well one in particular Sako
