You got to pay for that new Heym some kinda way!

You've got that right!

Great rifle Toby!

 

[Ragman]

Gorgeous!

 

[John Camp]

And the beat goes on - dum doobie dum de doo. It was getting kind of slow but the annual clearance sale should pick things up.

 

[Travis2282]

Are you selling to pay off the heym? Or what you buying now? Haha

 

[CoElkHunter]

Beautiful rifle at a very fair price! Are the Sakos a CRF action? Not that it really matters!

 

[Jeffrey]

Great rifle. Whoever buys this, it’ll start to become the one they grab every time.

Yes. Kind of trading a bunch of guns plus some cash for one Heym. Lol!

They're semi CRF. They work the same, but don't have the big claw extractor. This one works perfectly.

 

[Scrumbag]

Hmmm, Alaska gun right there!

 

[Wade J VanGinkel]

That's just beautiful,

Yep. It just needs some express sights and it would ready for bear.

Question for you.

You have a scope in QD mounts.

Do decide you want a back up sighting system for if the scope breaks and / or closing in on something close by.

Do you have iron sights on the rifle or do you have a pre-zeroed QUALITY red dot in QDs for your rifle?

Cost of decent gunsmithing vs a red dot, maybe not a lot in it.

So what do you do?

Scrummy

So I don't totally derail Toby's thread, put some musings here:

The sights would look more traditional, but the red dot is probably more practical for most people. Of course this rifle isn't a classic looking rifle anyway, so I would probably go for the RDS.

I have decided, on the off chance I go elk or brown bear hunting again, I am going to keep this rifle. It's an exceptionally nice rifle, and seeing how all the nicer rifles are starting to diminish on the market, in favor of cheap POS rifles, I'd better hold on to this one. Who knows, might shoot an Eland with it some day.

It is kinda like selling one of your kids, sometimes you think it is a sensible decision but in the end you always regret it. Sure wish I could get my kid back!
