Sako Forester L570 .308

Anyone know anything about this/these guns?</p>

I've loaned it out occasionally. Everyone seems to like.</p>

Me? My CVA .223 break open is my go-to. Only one shot but...</p>

Especially when swinging right to left (I'm left handed).

I have a Forester in .243 WIN. Love it. It's my go-to.

Mine was made in Finland, has all of the Finish markings. There was an ownership change in the ~late 90s - Beretta and Stoeger were/are involved in this somehow; don't recall details. Manufacturing moved to the US at some point. Quality coming out of the US facility was/is good - I have yet to see or read anything to the contrary. I share all of this because some folks are purists and will specifically seek out the Finish versions. If you're considering selling this weapon, it might be something to keep in mind.

Waiting to see if my nephew ever takes an interest in hunting. It was his grandfathers.
