If I were you i'd get both the hex and round receiver if not you will regret it in the near future when there all sold out.
I own a few of each model russian and finnish and i'm thinking of getting more russians while the prices are still low too.
The hex receivers were reworked older mosins so the receiver inside will have an older date of manufacture than the new barrel date on the outside. Actually the new barrel date is the date of the rearsenal.
You can't compare the accuracy of the russian mosin 91/30's to the finnish mosins until you actually shoot the russian mosins. Some of the russian mosins shot as good as the finnish ones do. Don't sell them short on accuracy.
Plus you can get barnaul 203gr soft point ammo for $6 a box.
