Adopted by Finland???
[edit]The cartridge was not adopted by Finland but by Sako which was producing the cartridge. No official arm of the Finnish Government was using the cartridge if I am correct. This is analogous to clamming that the .220 Swift was adopted by the United States of America just because Winchester was producing it. DeusImperator (talk) 12:41, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah I'm wondering about this myself. Seems like much of the information here is from one site, https://hughesprecision.com/product-tag/220-russian/.
- The first reference says it was USED in Finland, which makes more sense. I removed the part about adopted by Finland and rewrote a good bit of the article using the sources from the bottom. Tengu99 (talk) 21:47, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
