I wish I knew how to say "Excellent Post!!!" in Suomen!

Very interesting.

There used to be a Colorado doctor AKA Kwahe on the Swede forum that had a M-N rebored to 9,3x53R.

Alas, all of his load data was lost when the site crashed.

I used to have a collection of M-N's years ago. VERY interesting rifle, especially the 28-30 which was my favorite.

Lancaster, a two-pin 28-30 or 39 trigger will help you a lot in getting a good trigger break. I learned over the years how to work a stock Russian M-N trigger to a good, crisp, light release, but using a Finn improved 28-30/39 trigger jumpstarts the effort quite a bit.

PLEASE keep posting on this project.

Ex-President of SAKO Henry Paasikivii sent me a dummy 9,3x53R round back in the mid-80's...I wish I'd built a rifle using a 28-20 or 39 as a base.

Keep us informed!

A Baikal in 9,3x53R????????

Oh, boy, I'd buy that one in a New York minute...

And the Russky's used to build the Medved semiauto rifle in 9x53R.

That must be quite a find, the Soviet ballistic/mechanical twin of today's Remington 750 in .35 Whelen, except the Russian version probably fuinctioned well!
