Rizzini Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Went to pick up my rifle today. Its a Sako FinnFire .22LR fitted with a HAWKE 3-9x50 Airmax Scope and a SAK Moderator. Went after school to pick it up and have been with my mentor o ZERO it in and it was a lovely sound when it fired. We shot about 15 bullets to get it zeroed at 50yds and finished with the pic below of the group of 3 shot at 50yds. Will be putting a butler creek sling on it and harris bipod soon. Im very chuffed with this rifle, cant wait to get it out on rabbits. Bullets used were Winchester Subsonic. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowz Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 nice looking rifle buddy, also nice box that the rifle is mounted on, is it home made? how did you zero it, did you borrow a bipod or use shooting bags cause if that group was freehand thats very impressive even if off a bipod, look out bunnies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice kit, and a very kind man. The shots were taken with me lying down and using my jumper as a rifle rest, going to get a bipod tomorrow for it .
