Details

A very unique product, this 7.62x54R is an Eastern Bloc military surplus offering packaged in the drab, olive Soviet Spam Can. While this ammunition does not include a recognizable headstamp, it was likely produced for the USSR by Sellier & Bellot, as they are known to have produced 7.62x54R Silver Tip ammo.

The "R" in 7.62x54mmR stands for "Rimmed", and is a distinguishable difference from the 7.62x39mm cartridge used in AK-rifles. As it is known to have a Russian history, many people believe the "R" stands for Russia. The cartridge is designed for long-range effectiveness and has been used in military applications since 1891.
