Finn M39

Very accurate rifle. The finns did some damage to the soviets with them.

The Finns know how to set them up. It came with a shimmed stock, and is the most accurate of the group.

The M38 does 2 MOA with hunting ammo and the 4x scout scope. The Finn beats that, preferring the Yugo surplus over new ammo, with 1 MOA, if I do my part. Only thing is it shoots 12” high at 100 yds and 6” high at 200 yds. I’ll need a longer range if I’m ever going to move the leaf sights above “zero”.

Yes, if your going to shoot the 7.62x54, shoot it through an M39.
No comparison to the basic Russian model.
