There's a huge gun show at the end of the month and I assume it will have its share of mosin nagants for sale. I've been reading about them and how much fun they are. The pressure to get one is becoming too much to ignore. (OK, it doesn't take much pressure to get another gun.)
I'll be looking for a shooter, rifle not a carbine, just for target work. Cosmetics are secondary. I've read that the Finn versions and those with hex receivers are usually more accurate so I would keep an eye open for those.
What's a reasonable price range these days?
Are non-hex/non-Finnish rifles still decently accurate as long as they are mechanically sound?
I like to develop cast bullet reduced velocity loads for my milsurp bolt action rifles. Does the Mosin Nagant lend itself to such hand loads?
Thanks for any help.
