Thanks to Ripp’s post “222 Remington Rifle Cartridge Family Portrait” Report on a Forum Nitro Express team effort. ***ĭouble Rifles, Single Shots & Combinations A clip is what an M1 uses.*** Enjoy ? Participate and join in. A scope with no objective bell or one with no larger than a 32mm diameter lens will probably be the limit for the low rings. The 'Low' rings will limit the objective bell diameter the scope can have without touching the barrel or the bolt handle hitting the ocular bell. The fixed power Weavers & Leupolds from the late 60's & 70's are a much better choice from a performance standpoint, yet are 'period' enough to give you the 'appearance' you desire. Scopes from that time will tend to fog up with temperature changes, have poor light transmission, uncentered crosshairs & limited field of view, which is why most rifles from that era also had open sights. Any scope made in 1960 or prior would be considered 'vintage' for your L46, but if you are going to hunt with it you are likely to be disappointed. Value is dependent on many variables, but I think it goes without saying that a lefthanded model would have more value to a lefthanded person than to a righthanded person & vice versa. The 270 was offered in the Mannlincher configuration as well as the standard Sporter & Deluxe models. Sako chambered for the 270 Win in their long actions, L61R, AIII & AV. You can find it's production date & who it was shipped to by clicking on 'Factory Records Service' in the upper left of this page & requesting the data. There are lots of pictures here of the Sako ringmounts or you can post pics of your's to confirm what you have. Most of them were not stamped during their production run, as it was the only model Sako made until 1957. The very early ones were stamped L46 in the top of the front dovetail & the later ones (late 1950's), were stamped L46 on the left side of the receiver. Riihimaki is the town the Sako plant is located in, not a model designation. Your Sako has a DBM, detachable box magazine!!
