My first spam-can of 7.62x54R ammo - Survivalist Forum
Mar 27, 2013 · Here's one NOT to try. My buddy tried to open a can of 7.62x54R with his heavy duty commercial #10 can opener, the kind that is bolted to a cutting block. He ended up having to replace the cutting tip and still didn't get the can open. As to repacking in a standard ammo can. In a tight situation, I don't want to be looking for my can opener.
What is really going on with 7.62x54r? | Survivalist Forum
Apr 11, 2014 · Nothing's going on with 7.62x54r, other than a slight price increase over the years. (This slight increase is natural btw. There's a finite supply, include inflation). I bought a 440 round tin (Bulgarian milsurp) roughly a bit over a year ago and its cost was about $90 at the time, including shipping.

7.62x54R vs 8mm Mauser - Survivalist Forum
Jun 22, 2012 · Mosins are cheap, but the ammo is even cheaper, I don't think you can reload a round for the current price of the surplus stuff, I just paid 15.9 cents per round for the last spam can full. That right there makes the Moist Nuggets worth it, IMO. Along with the ammo being sealed tight against the elements, which is another plus, IMO.

Aug 13, 2012 · It's shaped after the katana which has been a fantastic design for centuries. You get a thick blade all the way to the tip so it should be less prone to breaking. I have personally owned a tanto blade Kabar for about three years and it has been one hell of a tool. I used it to open a 7.62x54R spam can and it held up beautifully.

how to reload 7.62x54r?? - Survivalist Forum
Nov 5, 2013 · Possible To Handload The 7.62x54R, But Difficult And Why Excellent answers already given and thank you. Most 7.62x54R cases are steel and Berdan primed.

Whats the best way to carry mosin nagant clips.
Aug 27, 2011 · I don't have any stripper clips though. I bought a spam can of ammo and in the can the rounds are wrapped in paper packets of 20 rounds. One packet fits well into the pouch. That's 40 rounds. It's difficult for me to imagine a likely scenario were I would need more than 40 rounds for my 91/30. From the Aim Surplus advertisement
