New Scope

[Topgun 30-06]

Hey 174in! Just wanted to thank you for the deal on the 4-12x40 scope. It came yesterday in a well sealed package and looks great on my Sako 30-06. Thanks---MIKE

Nice looking set up topgun. New scope fits perfectly.

Not a problem TG the scope and rifle look great! Good luck with it.That should be a fine setup for hunting.

Looks like you put a good set of rings and bases on it also.

Thanks guys! The rings/bases are Leupold dovetails that I have on all the rifles I use much! I hope to take it out to the range tomorrow with my Sako .243 that I just put a Leupold VXI 4-12x40 on last week to get them both sighted in. Here's a picture of the .243. It shot dime groups with a straight 6 power Leupold that was on it and it will be ready for antelope in Wyoming this Fall.

Awesome taste in rifles....Socko's are hard to beat.

What model Sako is that?
I have the .22 in varmint mode and a .243 Model 75 Stainless.
Both superb guns.
If that scope holds zero with the recoil of the 30-06 you have got the bargain of the century.
Cheers

The .243 is a Forester L579 action and the 30-06 is a Finnbear L61R action. I'm not worried about the scope, as that is one of two backup guns in 30-06 that I have. My "go to" 30-06 is a pre 64 Model 70 that's another beautiful gun in like new condition.
