Mr. White--are those two M28's I'm seeing? Fantastic! Now there's a "cruddy old rifle" for you! LOL

Yes they are, Cosmoline. I got the Izhevsk for $100 from a little gun shop where the owner thought it was just another Russian 91/30. I didn't bother to tell him otherwise. He had a bunch of overpriced guns there so I didn't feel too bad about taking him for a few $$. It has s really clean bore and it shoots under 2 MOA. At 300 yd with 150gr S&B, it'll shoot 5" groups all day long from prone.

I just got the Tula about a month ago at an auction and haven't shot it yet. The bore doesn't look as good as the other one. I've been cleaning it and every time I soak it, scrub it and swab it, I still remove crud.

There's really nothing pretty about Mosins but they sure do shoot. I love the smooth 2 stage triggers on the Finns.
