Rules: Must have been a mass issued service rifle. Not some one off for a shooting team. Must be a bolt action rifle.
Did not have to be used in a conflict.
What technical advancements did bring?
My Choice: The Finnish M28/30 Mosin Nagant. Simo Haya used it for his 505 Confirmed Kills. It helped beat back the Soviet during the Winter War of 1939. It had a improvements over previous Russian and Finnish Mosin Variations, including a slower rifling, better sights, heavier barrel, and a forward barrel bushing to keep the barrel free floating. The stock was made of Artic Birch and coated with Pine Tar Oil to keep it weather proof.

M1903 variants, followed by the multitude of the Lee Enfield versions from Mk1 through the jungle carbine MK5.

Thats a very good rifle and I do enjoy mine. Frankly I would not feel at a disadvantage with the Enfield, the 8mm Mauser, the Nagant but I do like the K31.
