I'm partial toward the older stuff. BSA Martini and Springfield 1922M2 are the current favorites. I wouldn't mind an early M52 to add to the bunch.
Another sleeper in the "affordable" category is the old Marlin 81DL. The one I have ('twas my Pop's, got it new in 1948) will turn in sub-inch sized groups at 50 yds. with the right ammo.
