Is the Mosin a sniper/hunting rifle? Forgive me for my ignorance

Mosin's are very popular and have their own following. They are good, solid, bolt action rifles that fire a powerful cartridge from a 5 round internal stripper clip fed magazine. They can be used for both hunting, or sniping i suppose. They are also, as rifles go, incredibly inexpensive. Up until this last month or two, i used to see them all the time for like 179 to 200 some odd dollars. There's just tons of them in the form of russian surplus, but i fear even those are fast disappearing too now. I kinda regret not buying one earlier.

Mosin is really a fine piece, even after all these years.
