Interesting about the modern Brownings. I have no experience with them so I wasn't aware of that, only the originals which aren't too uncommon around here {a friend has 5 or 6 of them in calibers ranging from .303 to .30-40, .30-06 and .38-72, etc. but no 7.62x53R as that chambering, though it was the most common 95 chambering, is very uncommon in the USA!!

I think you are referring to the Winchester 88?

And yes, your Pystykorva and Ukko-Pekka are VERY accurate rifles. I used to own a fairly extensive collection of them. I sold them all some years ago, but they were indeed very finely built and accurate rifles. I shot a bear with one {in military configuration}. Accurate indeed, but heavy! I vowed never to chase bear hounds up and down the mountains while carrying one again! You Finns are better men than me!

What are the Rosary, the Cross or the Crucifix other than tools to help maintain the fortress of our faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God?
