Unless I'm mistaken, the ammo cost for a Mosin Nagant is less than 30-30. They're also very interesting rifles. I handled one that had been re-bored to 8mm to clean up the corroded rifling. The owner hand loaded his cartridges and claimed very good accuracy. He also stated that it was fun to form his own brass.
