Hello all, just wanted to get everyone's opinion on which is the better rifle.
The cartridge on both are fairly similar.
The Mosin Nagant's 7.62x54R has a little less energy than the Mauser's 7.92x57 round.
The Mauser is probably a little better made rifle from a craftsmenship standpoint while the Mosin Nagant is probably a bit more reliable.
I give a slight edge to the Mosin Nagant from a distance standpoint as it's longer barrel. Both will do the job.
The Mosin Nagant is less expensive to buy and shoot than a Mauser.
