I love my Mosin Nagnt 91/30. It is very accurate, and not to heavy. Though it is very long and that can be a pian. Personally I like the Nagnt M38 beacuase it does not have a bayonet like the M44 does. The M38 is a carbine, and is very light, but does have a kick. Plus 7.62x54r ammo is not to expensive. Also an SKS is a great option. The Yugo SKS are cheap and really really good guns. Plus 7.62x39 is pretty cheap itself.
