In this video we take on "off the rack" straight stocked Finn M39 to the tower and take some shots at 600 yards with our D166 Lapua handloads from our previous reloading video. Let's just say this old girl has still got it. Stay tuned, much more military surplus content on the way.

The 1st 6000 M39's built at SAKO in 1941 had the straight stock due to not having the machinery for making the pistol grip stock at the time. The stock was made using the pattern from the M28/30 which in itself was also an excellent rifle built for the Civil Guard. The M28/30 was the rifle Simo Häyhä used during the Winter War.

I agree, However It may be close with the M-39,, They were gone through by the Fin's. But.. Like you I believe that the K-31 would have an edge over the the M-39. I love mine.. Never going to get rid of it.

@StPaul76 7 жыл бұрын

There is no actual D166 surplus ammo available in the States. So it would be old and crummy Swiss 7,5x55 surplus ammo against hadloaded brand spanking new Lapua D166 bullets with Vihtavuori N140 powder and Brand spanking new Lapua 53R-brass and brand spanking new CCI-primers.. Actually I think some of the barrels on M39s were made by the same folks at Sig that made the K31.. Go figure.. :D

I'm sure that in his network Eric could get some Factory D-166, He has 1.343.445 and growing subscribers, There has to be someone out there who could get him some or tell him where to get it. You are right though, The Handloaded ammo would be a race in it's self. Good point though StPaul76.

@sanfordhoffman2392 7 жыл бұрын

gromann That's inspiring. I have a typical Russian 91/30 that I put into an archangel stock. I was thinking about digging up an m39 barrel and having it put onto my 91/30. Maybe I'll hold off on that and see what kind of accuracy I can get out of the original before I go dumping even more money into it. I put a Timney trigger into and got a bipod etc etc. Really jazzed it up more than it's worth. Luckily it's a project gun for my son and I don't plan on selling it cause I'll never get out what I put into it. Just wanted to see how much accuracy I could get out of an old milsurp rifle if I gave it some help. I haven't really had a chance to put it to the test but before I put anymore into it I'll see how well it's doing. This is probably more info than you were expecting. Sorry.

@gromann 7 жыл бұрын

Mosins react very well to accurizing. The action lends itself to great feats of accuracy, but that's also why their accuracy is so inconsistent. There may be a 91/30 that did 1 moa out of the factory just because it happened to have that lovely luck of having perfect tolerances from luck. A 3-4 MOA rifle being average - with handloads, bedding and floating, then a better trigger (or just a trigger job) can get very respectable groups. I'd say upgrade the barrel as a last resort if you have good rifling and the crown is intact.

I recently got a M39 in a trade at a gun show. I bought some Monarch green cased ammo from our local Academy and hit the range at my local gun club. I set the ladder at 600 yards and fired at the 24" gong at that distance. I was ringing it 3/5 shots each magazine. I'm very satisfied with the weapon.

I enjoyed the video. Years ago I somehow accidently found my way into an M39 for $70 at my local gun shop. I knew it was a moisin but I had never seen one like it before. I didn't actually know just what it was until several years later. I took it to the range with surplus Russian ammo and it stacked them on top of each other at a 100 yards. A very good shooting rifle. I was very pleased years later when I learned that they were very collectable and sought after. I want to load some D166 and see what she can do. Thanks guys, I really enjoy your videos.
