• Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

I came across a Western Field-barrelled L-57 with a dark walnut, perhaps Swede surplus stock in 243. Redfield mounts and a cheap scope.
I'm thinking of offering $300, shooting all the cheap ammo I can find, and then making it a mountain rifle in 6.5x308.
Whaddya Think?
Can this action handle 260 rem and give me 400 yards with a decent scope?
Any problems with this early four-digit action?
It'll be my first SAKO.
 
Yes...there were problems with the L57 bolt as I recall....that's why
they came out with the 579....check with deergoose.
