Default mosin nagant

kinda going against my name here from the historical point of view....but dad recently told me he been seeing alot of mosin nagants at the gunshop selling pretty cheap....were both into mausers...i was the original...dad collected a few originals.....the only thing i know about them is they were used in WWII...particularly the scene in "enemy at the gates"..the snipers rifle.......and they fire a 7.62x54R right?? which of these guns are the GOOD ones?? im sure they are like mausers..everyone made them and many variations...but theres better ones then others...so what are the good ones??? hows the caliber compare to a popular cartridge of todays time?? can i even find factory loaded ammo?? hornady custom or anyone make it?? accurate guns or junk?? im happy with the mausers in the house....but heck....why not jump on a sleeper while its cheap?? mausers used to be sold for dirt.....now im seeing them go 300+ anyone know about these rifles?? just wondering...id love to set one up like vassilis sniper rifle.....me and dad could have shoot outs...original mauser vs original nagants! lol thanx guys
