I'm looking into buying an older milsurp gun to make noise at the range. I'm mostly torn as to what I want to start with though. I am looking for recommendations. I want a rifle that isn't very expensive to feed, easy to operate, and is fairly simple and reliable. I've been around long enough to know most of the major players. I would like to have a rifle that is at least 3MOA, and I do realize that that can be a crap-shoot with some of these old rifles. I would also like for it to be under the 400$ mark.
The one's I am particularly interested in are the Enfields, Finnish Mosins, Swedish Mausers, Swiss K31s, and your garden variety 98Ks. I am thinking that the Finnish Mosin is going to be my best bet. What are the pros and cons of these rifles. I'm just trying to gather as much info as possible before I really start looking.
