So ive been looking at the various posts about mosins and i keep reading how it has terrible recoil, my question is compared to what? Im more of a big bore revolver guy so ive fired 4 non rimfire long guns:
Marlin 336cw in 30-30
Ishapore 2a in 308
Maverick 6lb 12 gauge firing 2 3/4 1 oz slugs
Mossburg 7 lb 20 gauge
What would the recoil be like compared to these? Does the m44 kick more than the m91/30?
Im just looking for a fun cheap rifle to play around with and since ive been out of work for the last month it cant be too expensive. I dont really care about barrel length as long as its accurate and doesnt kill me on recoil.
Which mosin would you recommend for my purposes?
