Handy little rifle that can very easily be adjusted as he grows.

well i dont wanna knock it cause its a beautiful setup! cause the more people who have guns the better, i think uncle ted agrees with that statement! there is just something about the grey laminate i really like the new sako 85 in the grey lam looks so damn good i wish i could afford one! t/c's are perfect for the young hunter cause they are so versitile and like urifd says it will grow with him, change barrels at a later date if he wants some thing bigger or slide a scatter barrel on it for grouse etc hell a guy could even slide the old smoke poll setup on if he wanted too.

Dead beat..................That is one good looking little rig. It`s unique and different too. I also like the stock pattern & color; similiar to mine.....It`s a good thing that rifle is a .243. If it were a .270, then Pyro would have really felt sorry for you!!!!! LOL!!!!
