The Finnish mosin is a different sort of cat. A YouTube video by 9 Hole reviews (accuracy video’s with many guns) shot one out to 1100 yards with iron sights and had some interesting insights.

Yea, but his rifle wasn’t a grab-it-from-the-rack ordinary rifle like the common 91/30.

“M/28-30 model, serial number 60974, was also used by Simo Häyhä, a well-known Finnish sniper. M28/30 was used as Civil Guards competition rifle before World War II, as was the case with Simo Häyhä’s personal rifle. Therefore, rifles were built very well, with highest grade barrels available and carefully matched headspace.”
