Surplus rifle in 30-06 or 6.5x55

[u/CanadiansDeserveGuns]

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’d learn to reload 30/06 before I ever chose a mosin over a Husky rifle. That 1640 is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. There’s just no comparison.
