Having just agreed to buy a 6mmBR smithed by Shane Clancy I was working out funds when the opportunity came up to grab a nice Sako L579 varmint in
22-250. Much to the wife's disgust I picked up both guns today.

I'm a happy little Vegemite as I've always wanted a L579 to go with the L461, quad and finnfire.

Pics to follow soon if wife doesn't kill me in my sleep tonight!!

Righto you blokes. No they are not in a hock shop so dont even think about it.

My camera batteries were flat so I took a couple of pics with the iphone. (sorry about the quality)

First is my three sakos. From top is Sako L579 in 22-250. Sako quad varmint in 17HMR and bottom is Sako P94s Varmint in its BR stock. Missing is my L461 which is being rebarreled at the moment into a 20 VT.

2nd photo is the L579 and the quad.

3rd is the new Stolle Panda in 6BR. I have painted the stock in a bright blue with a two pack clear and polished the panda action. Wish this was mine but I bought it for my young fella as he wants to get into fly shooting next year. Have a 20MOA piccy rail on the way from Kelbys but need to save up for another nightforce for him now.
