7.62x54r meme

Post by lalunette »

I was inspired to create my first meme this morning...

It happened after I filled my ammo can with the 7.62x54r surplus Chicom ammo I received yesterday.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Shot a few dozen rounds of that Chinese ammo (mine is of 1969 vintage, Factory 61 stamped) last Friday - both out of my Hungarian 91/30 and my Finnish M39. At a distance of 100 m overall accuracy was far better than I had anticipated, albeit the ammo produced a number of cracked casings (at the neck) - the worst one about 20 mm long and up to 0.5 mm wide.
