My first milsurp was a beat up Enfield No 1 Mk III*. Looks like crap but shoots a grouping tighter than a witch's crack. It appears that money is a large concern for you. I would then go with the 91/30 Mosin Nagant. They are often available for $100. They're pretty accurate and the 7.62x54R is still pretty plentiful and cheap. Once you get into milsurp, then you can start scouting out the K31s, Swedish Mausers and Finnish Nagants.
