Mosin Nagant 7.62X54

Hey guys just picked up a Nagant, I have fired about 150 rounds through it already and I love how it shoots. Mine is a 91/30, and despite several people saying how inaccurate they are, I have found mine to shoot very straight and consistent. I was wondering if anyone else had one, and if anyone has hunted with one. I hope to shoot at least a doe with it next year in PA.

I've got two....one shoots pretty well, one's decent. They're definitely a love 'em/hate 'em type. I'm shooting the 200 grain Wolf soft points....inside 100 they seem devestating on whitetails.

I have 6 of them, the only two that give acceptable accuracy is a prewar 91/30 and a 91/30 rebuilt by the Finish. The rest of them, especially the M44s and M38s are nice wallhangers.
