Ok ... so here is my predicament.
I'm new to these forums, so first things being first: Hello.
Ok, now that singular piece of awkward introduction is done, I need help choosing my next rifle.
The 3 I have been looking at are: SVT, K98k, or an SKS (not so much).
I am really leaning towards the K98 due to its mauser bolt . But I've had a few people tell me that an 8mm is sub par? I don't know much about that round ... can someone tell me a lil more? Is it good enough to drop a deer? elk?
The SVT is also another i want, due to the semi auto 7.62x54. I love 7.62x54 more than i should really mainly due to it being cheap to find surplus. Any opinion on these 3 guns would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I know almost nothing of the SKS other than a bunch of rednecks have told me to get one. =S
