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)Reply

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)Reply
