[QUOTE="birry, post: 2578505, member: 34200"] Ok...so the obvious answer is BOTH, but I'm looking for opinions and experienced voices for figuring out which rifle to buy first. First off, I've shot a Mosin a few times and liked it quite a bit, but the bolt-action was pretty stiff and clumsy. I've heard really good things about Mauser actions, and would love to shoot/own one someday. I plan to use this rifle as a fun shooter and something with a little more power and range than my 5.56. I don't hunt, but I like target shooting. I also don't plan on burning through 1,000's of rounds of ammo each month. This will be a hobby gun, a recreational firearm, BUT something I don't want to hang in a glass case. I want to feel ok about taking it out and using it. Therefore, I'm not looking for matching serial #, mint condition K98. I'm looking for a solid gun that I can have fun shooting. Any advice? [/QUOTE]
