Default Sauer Rifles

I just bought a couple of the German made Sauer rifles (the sauer 100) and have to say thank you to my Browning X-Bolts but you have nothing on the Sauer rifles.. Any one else shooting a Sauer rifle?

Great shooting rifles, IMO one of the better rifles in its price range. Very fond of the Sauer, smooth action, excellent trigger, 3 position safety. 5rnd detachable mag. Bottom metal unlike the m18 Mauser and Tikka t3.

I recently bought a Sauer 101 Classic in .243 Win.
Looking forward to working up loads for it soon!

used my brother's sauer 200 in 30-06... buttery smooth action ... with no load development and hornady 180gr RN with a charge 2 gr below most accurate in book we got 5 shot groups of 1.7" +/- ... nice one on PR consignment for 5K which to me is 1500 - 2500 overpriced... idk

I have a sauer 101 in 243, wood stock, blued barrel. I like the 5 round mag feature. Smooth bolt, has the unload feature with the safety on. I’ve only shot factory ammo with it but it really likes the Sako brand 100 grain. Under 3/4” all day.

Default love it

I love my Sauer 100 in 6.5PRC. I agree with you ...Its a no brainer to buy the Sauer over a X-Bolt at the same price point.
