Thanks everyone! I was very pleasantly surprised by how well this one shot over the weekend. I had some minor concerns over the bore but it actually wound up shooting really well. I let Titanium Hammer shoot it and after two rounds just outside of the bullseye, his next three shots all hit the bull! He has a tendency of showing me up with my own rifles!

Very nice indeed and great history. The handguard is awesome and I generally like the white look in rifles. Don't understand why the Finns didn't blue it or how it got that color. I don't think we will ever know. It would have had my vote if I had read this in time. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That is pretty cool. I wish I could shoot with Titanium Hammer. I have a couple of rifles I haven't shot yet, and he could go first....... Only because I am being nice. :evil:

One of my big "wish list items" is a "Peter the Great" stamped rifle - yours is nice! (drool, drool!) :-)
