Question
Have a sako L61R in 300 HH .His number is 7192 .can you say to me the year it was built ? Merci

Answer
Hello, GRANDCOLLOT. Your L61R was manufactured in 1961 and designated the "1961 Finnbear Magnum". It was chambered in your .300 H&H ; 7mm Remington Magnum ; .300 Winchester Magnum ; .338 Winchester Magnum and .375 H&H. This rifle was used in Africa for many years. Game guides have recommended it to many of their clients, due to the dependability and strength of the action. I hope this answers your question and thank you for asking for me. Charles Gage
