Sako email address
Hi guys,
Does anybody have an email address for Sako in Finland?
I mailed the agents (AO Sports) through their website, but haven't received a response yet.
I'm trying to get the exact rate of twist of my .243 Forester. And also the exact year of my rifle's manufacture. Looking at their old rifle manufacture dates (pdf on www.sako.fi) my rifle was made between 1960-1973, and taking my low serial number into account I guess it is probably somewhere between 1962-1965.

Re: Sako email address
Sounds like it will be easier to measure the twist rate yourself. I push a ramrod down the barrel front to back. Then attach the wire brush & pull the rod back till it is firmly gripped by the rifling and starts turning. I then draw a line along the top and another around the ramrod. I then pull the ramrod out slowly till the line on the top has completed a full revolution. Stop pulling and measure the distance from your line around the ramrod to the tip of the barrel. If need be, convert to inches. I am sure if you searched the forum you will find similar postings & various methods. Some will put masking tape on the ramrod to avoid the ink marks. Not sure how you can get the year of manufacture.
