Mausers, Mosins, and Lee Enfields have proven themselves over and over against each other.
As much as I dislike SLA Marshal's "research" he did note that the Garand did better in Korean winters than other weapons available to the Infantry. As far as the Battle of Chosin goes, I would say that being encircled by superior numbers of Chinese forces would encourage you to use all available arms and ammo because your supply lines have been cut. Logistics makes a better explanation why captured arms and ammo were used in light of the known performance of the Garand in Korean winters.
Of the rifles listed above, only the Mauser is still being manufactured, so if you want a new rifle that would be the one to get. If you don't mind buying used, any of them will work quite well.
