Nice looking little rifle Joe.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.
Re: Husqvarna Sakrat .22
I like that octagon barrel. Looks like whoever had it since 1942 took good care of it.

Re: Husqvarna .22
A good little shooter too lads, I shot the tin hat target at 15m and my pal Jim pulled it in even tighter with his second group on the bullseye target.
I took the rifle off him after that one.
I did try some CCI sub-sonics that were in my range bag but it prefered the Remington Target ammo. Just need a bit longer range to try it out on now.
I am really pleased with this one.

Re: Husqvarna .22
Nice job Joe I had a couple slots saved for a couple more .22s but the plod stole them off me when I renewed. Only way I can get any thing new is if I sell some thing and I dont have any thing I want to let go. Hmmmm
