M91/30. There's nothing quite like it. With the length, weight, feel, and report of the thing, you feel like you've got a real man's weapon. The price of ammunition and the guns themselves do not hurt.

Garand by a long shot

I enjoy shooting my CZ VZ58. I also like to take my M1A1 Super Match to the range.

My Garand, before it was returned to me destroyed, was my favorite, BY FAR. A close second would be the venerable 91/30 Mosin. Probably the cheapest, most powerful, and most accurate gun out there for the money.

My 100+ year old Sweedish Mauser. It will hit a dime at 100 yards.

My 1891 Argentine Engineers carbine. It handles great, action is liquid smooth, trigger breaks clean, it looks great, feels great and shoots great. All that and it's 116 years old.

My Spanish Mauser 93. Accurate, reliable, very low recoil and a round that (even when loaded for the old metallurgy) is still good enough for any critter in the lower 48 if the hunter is good enough.

M1 Carbine
... what's wrong with all the people with other answers?
The only milsurp rifles I own are the M1 carbine and an SKS ... I've fired a Garand a few times and they're fine guns, and I can admire the Mosin variants, but semiauto plus a light & handy platform that just about any new shooter can handle make for a perfect fun gun.

I have only shot the Enfield, Ishapore 2A essentially an Enfield, the SKS and 03A3
I would have to say I like the 03A3 even if it was "sporterized" but the Enfields of the ones that are not modified.

While I enjoy shooting the 91/30, the No. 4 Mk 1, and the 1916 7x57, the SKS is still my hands down favorite. Ammo is still reasonable, and it is tons of fun to shoot.
Out of the milsurps I've shot, I liked the 1903 Springfield (pre-A1) and the Arisaka 99 the best. Though now that I've acquired a K98k, I think that'll take the top spot simply because I actually own it and will get to shoot it regularly.

if I could put an optic on it without having to modify it, I would.
I love this thing.
