Sako 204 Run in photos

Post by Drafty »

Had 3 hours to burn today before my daughters 12 birthday party so went to the inlaws farm to run in the new Sako, left the wife to set up. :wink:
On arrival the conditions were good so measured out the 100m mark and set up the target, table and all my cleaning gear. Went through the process 1 shot, clean, sight in and clean again, did this for the next few hours and managed 7 shots at the target by which time i had it close to zeroed. Must say the scope and rifle combo are fantastic to shoot, the set trigger is so sweet and the fine cross haires on the scope make it so much easier to aim. Love it.

Any way took a few snaps of the setup and a pic of the target with shots 6 and 7.

Cant wait to get out there again and take some heads off.

Belongs and built by a friend, dont know what i would have done without it, it has made running in the barrel so much much easier.
