I vote the M1Garand, the sights and powerful cartridge put it over the top. I have put a lot of rounds in the M1 Garand, SVT40, G43 and the Swede auto loader. More hits farther out all day long for the M1 Garand. The Swede & G43 were close. The SVT40 looks the meanest and was fun to shoot but just did not do as well.. Any issues with the M1 Garand are nullified with just some practice. The SKS is good for close, maybe out to 150 yards but the sights and lower power put it at a severe disadvantage. My French
MAS44 turned into a safe queen and never got to show her stuff, I have heard good things about the design.
