The 7.62 TKIV 85, short for 7.62 Tarkkuuskivääri 85 (7.62 sniper rifle 85) is a bolt action designated marksman/sniper rifle used by the Finnish Defence Forces. It is based on the Mosin-Nagant rifle, using the same (in some cases antique) receivers. The Finnish Army has produced such rifles since the nation was founded. The Mosin-Nagant bolt-actions were modified in 1984 by Valmet who also manufactured new barrels for these rifles. The rifles were assembled in 1984–1985 by Finnish Defence Forces (FDF) Asevarikko 1 ("Arsenal 1") in Kuopio, Finland.
