The hex receivers do tend to be a little better machined than the round, but they all are nothing to brag about. If I had a choice I would go with tula as well. Tula is the star with the arrow, the other one you will most likely see is Izhevsh which is a triangle with an arrow. The bores on these tend to vary quite a bit, so keep an eye out for that.

A good resource to check out is 7.62x54r.net

a friend of mine has the M44 and its not so bad to shoot. I was planning on ordering thru classicarms or jgsales, so I really won't be able to inspect them. Thanks for the info.

The most important thing to look for is a matching receiver and bolt! That way you know the head space is ok. Otherwise I would suggest the best condition at the cheapest price or the one that you think looks the best! The M44 comes with a bayonet so thats a plus for me. Hex receivers I think are Tula receivers so may have slightly better machining. I am not really into bolt guns so I say if you want one go cheap so you have more money to buy bigger and better items. I am very happy with my $65 M44 Mosin. If it was worth any more I would sell it! Of course that and my Russian Capture K98 are the only two Bolt guns I have!
When as a little boy he first went to the range, he wanted to shoot a variety of guns.

He got to shoot a shotgun. I took a lightweight Remington 870 riot gun, loaded magnums into it, and told him to fire it. I did get behind him to catch him.....

He got to shoot a handgun. I took a Ruger .44 mag. deer hunter, showed him how to handle it, and that is what he shot. I stood ready to catch it.

Then, he shot .22's.

Today, he will handle anything that you put into his hands!

Looks like they were made between 1915 and 1918.
