I AM getting interested in those rifles, thinking about getting one or three..... so far, don't even know what round they chamber. But I've heard they are fine rifles, and often cheap.
that 7.62 x 54 round, is that the same as the old "7.62 NATO" round?
The 7.62 NATO is 7.62x51, which is a shortened version of the 30-06. The 7.62x54R is a different round from the same (earlier) era as the .303 British, 8mm Lebel, and the 30-40 Krag.
I think he means the 7.62x54.....30-06
D'OH!
Really?
I didn't know that.
I've been tossing around the idea of gathering a bunch of us who have one flavour of MN or another and heading out to throw lead. Any Portland locals interested?
