I've got a few Swede's, 2 in military config (1 long, one short), and 3 in sporter condition, 1 Turkish 98 Mauser original, 1 Hungarian Steyr in 8X56R original (straight pull bolt), 1 long Moisin Nagant original, 1 British Enfield in .308 (yes, .308, it's an Indian variant), a couple SKS's, 1 chopped up Japanese 44 carbine in 6.5, and a few WW2 era Makarov's. All in working order.
My dad's collection is very extensive, and some of those will find their way into my gun lockers, some into my 2 brothers'.

My favorite would have to be the Swede's, mostly because of the round itself (6.5 X 55) and the quality of the actions and barrels on the surplus guns I've acquired.
