The Sako S491 is a bolt action single shot rifle manufactured by Sako in Finland, chambered in 6mm PPC USA. The 6mm PPC USA cartridge was developed by Dr. Louis Palmisano and Ferris Pindell from the .220 Russian case and is used extensively in benchrest competition shooting. Sako was among the few major manufacturers to produce factory rifles and brass for the cartridge. The S491 is built on Sako's short action receiver, which features integral dovetail bases machined for Sako style scope rings. The rifle is configured for scope use only, with no provisions for iron sights.

This example features a 24 inch barrel with a blued finish. The stock is walnut with a Monte Carlo comb, checkering at the pistol grip and forend, a rubber buttpad, and sling studs at the front and rear. Length of pull measures 13 3/8 inches. No original box or accessories included.
