I have some of the following ammo. Can't find much info online. Pulled a bullet to check weight. So this is what I found.
Yellow 182gr lead core FMJ.
Unsure of powder.
Case is brass and looks annealed? Came in a 50 cal ammo can of assorted 7.62x54R ammo I bought. Fired 5 shots at 250yds and they were all touching .75 group!
This was from my trimmed to 22" barrel mounted in a drop box mag Arch Angel stock with timney trigger. Anyone know specifically what kind of ammo it is?

What's the head stamp numbers on the case?

I'm guessing it's going to be early Bulgarian heavy ball, but the head stamp will tell for sure.

Could be Polish heavy ball.

182 gr is mg ammo. 22 " barrel is not original. God Bless America Pro Libertate Patria
