March Build of the month

Vintage Varminter

In the late 1970's when coyote pelt prices were at an all time high and prairie dogs made great off-season practice, this is the setup you would have dreamed about....if you could have afforded it.

We started with an 8-power fixed Redfield silhouette target scope, added original Sako rings made in Finland and put it all on a late 1970's Sako Deluxe L579 Forester in 22-250.  The Sako bluing is in exceptional condition at 99%.  The wood finish has a few minor dings from use so although it looks great, it doesn't make you feel too bad to go out and actually enjoy it on a Sunday drive through the prairie dog town.
