For sale is my extremely unused Sako 85 Hunter in 6.5x55.
I bought this rifle in 2008 and to date the round count is below 160. Because of this lack of use I've decided it would be better to sell on to someone that would use it as I feel its a waste to have it sat in the cabinet doing nothing.
The reason for purchasing the rifle originally was as a stalking rifle but it has never been anywhere other than my local range so is in very good condition as can be seen in the photo. The only blemish on the rifle is some light scuffs on the stock near the heal which can be seen in the picture, I think this was from either another rifle being taken out or put back at the side of it. Once I spotted this I bought gun socks for all my rifles and it has been kept in one ever since.
The package consists of:-
- Sako 85 Hunter R/H chambered in 6.5x55
- T8 moderator threaded in M14
- Sako Optiloc rings and bases.
- Leupold VXL 3-10X56 Scope with a boon and crocket reticule, which matches the trajectory of both 156gn sako and 140 federal ammo very well out to 300yds which is the furthest I've shot it.
- I have 80 rnds of PPU FMJ 139gn ammo as well which will be included, this was bought to use on range but I've only fired 20 of the 100 I bought.
- 79 Once fired sako cases, 17 PPU cases, 20 Federal Cases.
- 36 140gn Hornady SST, 30 140gn & 112 129gn Hornady interlock, 37 120gn Speer Spitzer bullets.
