I'll throw a vote in for the most underappriciated being Spanish Mausers. The 7x57 is pretty much the ONLY foreign military round chambered in modern American rifles (the 6.5 Swedish is starting to knock that title down though). Ballistically it's amazing, fun and has killed more men and beasts then the current crop of rifles mentioned. And then the rifle itself is beautiful, well balanced and handeling just like any other Mauser rifle.
The most over-rated would go to the M14/M1A. Yeah they're neat and fun. But they're NOT $1600 worthy.
