I know that rifle-wise K31 > Mosin Nagant in accuracy, speed of shots etc.
I'm more concerned about which is the better buy. Ammo-wise, 7.5x55mm vs. 7.62x54R are both scarce up here in Canadia.
The K31 is more expensive than M44/38 because it is more refined blah blah.
Now I hear that the 7.5 Swiss round uses .308 bullets. I know where to get brass and some dies. Would it be cheaper in the long run to just reload 7.5 Swiss with .308 bullets than trying to scrounge up non-existent 7.62x54R surplus or trying to reload it? I hear that the .311 rounds are expensive/hard to find.
Decisions. Help please!
