Finland in the country responsible for the manufacturing of Sako Rifles. Sako Rifles are essentially used in sporting and hunting activities ever since 1921.

Sako
Yes
Impossible to answer without the serial number.
These rifles made in Finland
No, an Ithaca gun is not made in Finland and is not a Sako. Ithaca Gun Company is an American manufacturer known for its shotguns and firearms, while Sako is a Finnish company renowned for its precision rifles. Although both brands are respected in the firearms industry, they originate from different countries and have distinct histories and product lines.
Made 1958-1971, Do not have exact production records, yours would have been about mid 1960s. VERY nice rifles.
Unfortunately, the current owner of SAKO (Beretta) does not publish date of manufacture tables for NEW Sako rifles. Try contacting Beretta Customer Support through their website.
Sako Finland manufactures some of the world's finest hunting and sporting rifles. These rifles remain incomparable in terms of accuracy, quality and premium pricing. They are sold at discounted prices at major online firearms store and rifle centers.
Probably in the $600-$900 range, but depends on which model and condition. There are 6 pages of Sako rifles in one of my references- so which one do you have?
Might be a replacement barrel. DO NOT FIRE until a gunsmith checks it out
