    Not as far as I know maybe your thinking of the alloy shim?

    My one is one of about 1000 made by Sako. Well the barrel is, Sako assembled all the M28/30s. Using Sig and Tikka barrels mainly.
    This one was made in the last year of production, 1935 .
    It was never taken into the army ( lacks SA ) instead it just has SKY ( Civil guard) stamp.

    It could have been issued to a reserve who never used it, then the reserve bought it and it sat in the cupboard. All the cosmoline had turned to varnish and it took a few liters of petrol to shift it all.

    Keen to see how well it shoots.

    It has a 308 bore

    You might need to do some reading - you're a bit off on some of those points...

    In longrange riflery, trajectory is the pure science part. Gravity is a constant for our purposes.
    Wind is in the art department.
    Light is pure fucking voodoo.

    I guess a sales man is a sales man even in Finland.
