I've been looking at intersurplus and looking at either Husqvarna 1640 or the M98 but can't choose the caliber I want. They seem to be priced around the same $40 per box pre-tax

I have a .22lr and an SKS but would like to add another surplus rifle to shoot at 100 and maybe 200 yards

i have the 1640 in 30-06. I like it. only problem I had with mine was the sling swivel is one of those european hoop thats 3/4 inch wide and regular 1 inch sling won't fit. I had to buy an adapter lol.
