Spam cans content?

Can anyone lead me in the direction to find weights of spam cans to determine if on stripper clips. Or if anybody can identify quantities on zinc can? And what about long ass word on presumably Russian brown can. Always a collectable but approximate value?

Thank you Longcolt 44 I looked at that can marking identifier and what lost me was the number 8 ? Before rc(steel case).And also what do you think that long Russian word means I have literally been looking for years and I haven't found it posted anywhere. Alot of similar looking but not exactly. I was hoping with the vast knowledge over here , I can get a little more education.

Good afternoon comrades.
So the long word is actually two words just close together. The word means “hunting cartridges”
The quantity looks like 660 rounds in the can

Ok friends. Off I go back to reload :0)

The green can says "Ship To John Rambo, Vietnam". The silver one, I can't read Chinese sorry.

I think for stripper clips it's something like theirs usually less in the can since the strippers take up some of the available space or that's what I've noticed usually when I'm lucky enough to find a can that has stripper clips in it.
