SAKO 75 Price

[JoeH]

Guys,
a mate of mine knowing I'm in the market for a .243 has offered me his Sako 75, he's unsure about how much it's worth. I know first hand that's it's well looked after but he advised me to check on a forum that the price sounded about right? He's looking to upgrade and has been the main steer in getting my experience etc.
It's a Sako 75 - Finnlite, Synthetic Stock, Fluted Barrel with a T8 Reflex Moderator. No scope but will have the rings.

He's basically said prob about £750 and I'm aware I'll have to spend a good amount on a scope.

I'm aware i could pick up something brand new for £500 but hoped to get a better Rifle second hand but it's obviously a bit of a minefield, this way it's a trusted source, just wanted to understand the general perception if possible. I've put a few rounds through and it feels good!

Thanks in advance

Joe

With my v limited knowledge i'd say thats a fair price for a good 'un.

If you know its history that is a big plus.
I had one off a mate, sako s/s .243, Hungarian S & B 8*56 optilocks, less than 200 rounds, for about the same.
To say I was well chuffed would be an understatement.
Flippin good rifle IMHO.

Good luck,

Nick

Sounds like a potential winner, cracking rifle and well looked after. I know it will of had a hell of alot of rounds through it though - Works in Deer Management. I know he'd only sell good kit, we were just unsure if that price was right.

I would say that is a very good price having sold the same model a while back for a lot more to a very happy member from this site.
Admittedly mine had not done as much work.
