The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

If I can't get a Mosan Nagant, what other kinds of cheap rifles are there? Hog Hunting, .270 or bigger.

What do you define as cheap? If you find any good accurate milsurp for under 200 youre doing ok these days.

Mausers? They are 8mm...

Ruger American. Best bang for the buck in a hunting rifle. Get 'em at Walmart or anywhere brand new.

Try a 54cal muzzleloader ,that will make it sporty.

What part of Texas? You could even go down to a .223 if you found something that fits the budget.
H&R single shots look like they run about $230 new.

There seems to be plenty of sporterized .303's around. all I've had were accurate and functional, 10 rd. mags., parts available. Enfields are my second favorite to Mosins. You can get hunting ammo for about 12-13 $ per box.......SBP.....63 MN's

If you want a hog hunter, there's nothing wrong with a Chinese T-53. They can be had fairly cheap and many of them have spectacular bores. Even comes with a self contained pig sticker should you need that

Savage Axis. Comes in .270 as well as some other useful hog-hunting calibers.
If you want to stick with milsurps, The Steyr M95 should work, and are still inexpensive, Though the above suggestion of a T53 is valid; double duty with that bayonet!
