  Hello,
  
  Could someone please explain the difference between the sako actions? Which is best and why?
  
  For Example: in 30-06
  
  AIII vs. L61R vs. AV etc
  
  Also, what happened in 1972 to make the pre-72 rifles better and what is the signifigance of bofors steel?
  
  Would also like to get in touch with collector(s) and dealer(s) who have access to these older rifles.
  
  Thanks,
  
  Luke6-31

  I would guess that any Sako AV would sell for at least $800 in reasonably good shape.

  We need pictures and/or more information. Is it the deluxe version (stock will have pistol grip cap and forend piece), with scope, rings? Condition, as always, makes a lot of difference. $800 might be right, or could be too low by $400 or too high. I've seen Sako deluxe rifles go for as little as $400 (with blue worn and stock dings) to $1200+ for pristine versions.
