Sako L461 Vixen 222 Remington 23.5" Bolt Action Rifle

Sako first started making rifles with FN Mauser actions in 1946. When the updated L461 action was brought out, the model was named the Vixen. This rifle is a Vixen with a 23.5" barrel chambered in .222 Remingon. The early rifles are prized for their quality and craftsmanship. The .222 Rem., or Triple Deuce, was introduced in 1950 and was the first .22 caliber commercial rimless cartridge made in the United States. It enjoys a reputation for inherent accuracy and is a popular varmint cartridge at short and medium ranges. Sako rifles are known for their out-of-the-box accuracy, and this one is probably no exception. This would make someone a very nice varmint rifle that should last for decades to come. Finish on this rifle is good with the gun showing normal wear.
