Description:
Sako 85 Bavarian – .270 Winchester (Left Handed) – New Old Stock

Offered for sale is an exceptional left-handed Sako 85 Bavarian bolt-action rifle, chambered in the classic and versatile .270 Winchester. This rifle is new old stock, unfired, and preserved in its original factory wrapping and box, and it includes all original accessories and the factory manual. Left-handed Bavarian-configured examples in untouched, factory-original condition are especially scarce.

Sako rifles are internationally respected for their precision machining, exceptional accuracy, and uncompromising quality control. The Sako 85 action is widely regarded as one of the finest modern controlled-round-feed sporting actions ever produced, combining modern engineering with traditional European craftsmanship. This left-handed configuration offers true mirror-image ergonomics for southpaw shooters—bolt, safety, and handling designed correctly, not adapted.

The Bavarian configuration is among Sako’s most distinctive and desirable, featuring classic Central European styling with a Bavarian-style stock that provides excellent balance, natural pointability, and refined aesthetics. It is a configuration appreciated equally by collectors and serious hunters who value tradition and function in equal measure.

This rifle comes from the now-discontinued Sako 85 line, a factor that continues to drive collector interest and long-term value. As remaining inventory dwindles, new old stock, unfired left-handed examples in original factory packaging are increasingly sought after and seldom offered for sale.

Chambered in .270 Winchester, this rifle delivers flat trajectory, excellent downrange performance, and proven effectiveness on a wide range of North American game. The .270 Winchester remains one of the most respected hunting cartridges ever produced, offering outstanding ammunition availability and a strong balance of velocity, accuracy, and manageable recoil—an ideal match for the precision of the Sako 85 platform.

Whether you are a left-handed shooter seeking a correct-handed premium rifle or a collector looking to secure a rare Bavarian-configured Sako in factory-original condition, this Sako 85 Bavarian represents craftsmanship, heritage, and enduring value.
