Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Sako M591 is a Finnish bolt-action rifle that embodies Sako’s longstanding reputation for precision engineering and exceptional build quality. Introduced in the early 1990s as part of the Model 591 series, it was designed around a medium-length action to perfectly balance size and performance for cartridges in the .308 Winchester family and similar chamberings. Most commonly, the M591 was chambered in versatile mid-size calibers such as .243 Winchester, .270 Winchester, .308 Winchester, and .30-06 Springfield, making it a favorite for both European and North American hunters. The M591 action is highly regarded among shooters for its smooth bolt throw, excellent lockup, and robust construction, featuring dual opposed locking lugs and a well-machined receiver. The rifle also includes a detachable staggered box magazine, which provides reliable feeding while offering the convenience of quick reloads or the ability to carry spares. Many examples were outfitted with Sako’s crisp, adjustable single-stage trigger, often considered one of the best factory triggers of its era, allowing for precise shot placement whether in the field or on the range. The free-floating barrel, cold-hammer-forged by Sako, delivers outstanding accuracy and long service life, which has made the M591 a trusted rifle across multiple shooting disciplines. Aesthetically and functionally, the Sako M591 showcases the blend of craftsmanship and utility that Finnish rifles are known for. Rifles were typically stocked in finely checkered walnut, with ergonomic designs to enhance handling and recoil management, though synthetic-stocked versions appeared in later runs. The finish work on both wood and metal is of notably high quality, giving the rifle a refined appearance that appeals to enthusiasts and collectors. The M591 also benefitted from Sako’s proprietary dovetail mounting system, allowing users to mount optics directly without the need for additional bases, further adding to its reputation for reliability and versatility. Though the M591 has since been discontinued and replaced by newer Sako models such as the 75 and 85 series, it retains a strong following on the secondary market. Collectors value it not only for its craftsmanship but also for its role as a transitional model that bridged Sako’s classic earlier rifles and the modern designs that followed. For shooters, the M591 remains a highly functional and dependable rifle that stands the test of time, embodying the precision and durability that has made Sako a name synonymous with excellence.
