Finnish Mosin Nagant hunting rifles

I recently picked up a stock for a Mosin Nagant.

A thumb-hole "sporter" stock that appears to be inlet and bedded for relatively light ('91 / '91-30 / maybe M-39 barrel. There is some "winter-grade" checkering (about 10 LPI) on the sides of the fore-end.

It is adorned with a bunch of round "stickers" dated variously between 1986 and 1997. These are apparently "hunter proficiency" tags that a hunter must have before going into the field for bear, moose, etc. seasons. No tag? Don't get found in the "woods" with a rifle!

Has anyone any information on this aspect of Finn Mosin Nagantery?

Are you sure it's 7.62x54r? IIRC I read some where that Hunting rifles couldn't be of a Military Caliber and most where converted to 9.3 x 62

Point taken on the calibre. All I have is the stock, which is definitely inletted for a MN action.

Straight-line, thumb-hole configuration.

If I could find a suitable scope mount, I would seriously consider building it up, but probably in 7.62 x 53R configuration, as this is in Oz. Plenty of "pre-loved" MN specimens here, many going fairly cheap because of rotted-out barrels. My gunsmith "buddy" seems to think it would be a neat idea.

The Fins have a long rifle history. You will find they converted their Mosins to just about any reasonable calibre you can think of; wildcatted the 7,62x54R to many unheard of calibres.

The necked down 7,62x54R was used into the 50's until replaced by more modern cartridges like the 222 Rem and 243 Win. Use for long range small game hunting.
