Brutus' Description

This ammo was maunfactured in the early 70's through the 80's in either Bulgaria and Russia. 
 The Silver bar you see on the wooden case and on the can indicates Silver Tip. 

The Silver Tipped 149 grain Boat Tail bullet in this ammunition is unique in that it has a steel shank in the center of the projectile beneath an exterior coating of lead that is bonded to the bullet jacket. This allows the projectile to stabilize in flight and provides the accuracy and penetration of a steel core round while not being harsh on the barrel or bore as is the case with a full hardened steel core. It is the absolute best of both worlds.

Also, the Boat Tail Bullet is more aerodynamic and allows for a flatter trajectory and greater accuracy over a long distance.

This ammo has a copper washed steel case and is berdan primed. The case neck and the primer are sealed for moisture protection. It comes packed in 20rd. military packs, 440rds. per sealed spam can. As with most surplus 54r ammo this ammunition does have some mildly corrosive components so remember to clean your weapon after firing. 

All Ammo comes packaged 440rds to a sealed "spam" can, and 880rds ( 2 cans ) to a wooden crate as pictured. We sell by the can or by the case. 
Each case of 2 cans only comes with one can opener so only case orders will receive a can opener. 

We have both the Russian and the Bulgarian ammo in stock and they are virtually identical in appearance and function. We will ship which ever is most accessible to us here in the warehouse at the time and make no guarentees as to which one will ship.

I bought two tins of ammo so that i could get the crate and the can opener. They arrived quickly and in good condition. Just needed a screwdriver to get the crate open without destroying the lid.

Got to hand it to those Eastern European’s, this stuff works and is accurate. The price is competitive, but shipping took forever. Got my order and went straight to the range. Happy man!!!

Received my 7.62x54R Romanian ammo can with 440 of the most wonderful bullets I have seen in a while. Clean and dry and accurate shooting. I just can't thank Classic Firearms for their attention to detail, fast packing and delivery and my overall customer experience. I will buy more when they have more! Thanks!
Just as promised!

Ammo was received quickly. Was able to open the tin easily, and all ammo seems to be in tact. Have not had the chance to fire any of it, but I am looking forward to it.! Thanks for having this in stock for my new gun!

This ammo is the most fun to shoot in my mosin nagant purchased from classic arms.
Its also pretty inexpensive, cheaper than 22LR.
Would recommend to everyone. Just remember to clean your guns often.
Great Deal

Besides being a great deal, I love the way the ammo is delivered. The box looks like it's straight off the Russian front! Ammo has performed flawlessly. Another great deal from Classic Firearms!
Nice ammo. Fast shipping.

Classic Firearms does it again. Another flawless transaction. The web site is very user friendly, from placing order to tracking. Can't wait to see what's next. thank you.
Wonderful Product, Exactly as Advertised
Review by Mike on 3/22/13

I bought this "Spam Can" of 7.62x54R, for my 91/30 Mosin Nagant. It performs perfectly besides it being corrosive and over 30 yrs old.
They all fired the same and there was no difference in performance. This stuff was made for the military to use, its not some crappy reloads from Joe blow at a gun show. 10/10 Will Buy again. Pro Tip: Buy the can opener if you only buy the 440 (it comes in the 880), cause opening this thing with a hammer and chisel was a long process.
Excellent!

First purchase with classic. Recieved order within 7 days. Very surprised since I had ordered with another supplier recently and they were backed up so bad it took just under thirty days. I know everything is hectic right now but classic didn't disappoint! Can't go wrong with this! Excellent ammo and price!
Very Good
Review by Eric from SC on 3/8/13

I have bought many of spam cans in my day, and this was the best preserved one. There was not a bit of rust or dent in the can. The rounds were as advertised. Quality stuff. I will be buying more! Very happy with Classic

Now, if Classic could just offer up some new 91/30's soon!
Great stuff

For those of you who don't know how to get these bad boys open, all I did was took a flat head screw driver and a hammer and punched through the seal all the way around. Works great.

Why can't we find any 9mm ammo? Did all of the reloaders dry up and blow away?
Great ammo at a good price
Review by marine on 1/24/13

This is a good deal especially with just about every other caliber out of stock. As far as cleaning the rifle after shooting, you can spray the barrel down with windex and it will take care of the corrosive primers by washing away the corrosive salts in the primers. Water will do the same thing and just give the rifle a good coat of gun oil afterwards.
Good Stuff
Review by Kyle on 1/17/13

Well with what has been happening to ammo and gun prices over the past 5 weeks, this is about as good as it gets. With prices still at or below $.30/round, good luck finding anything else to shoot. There isn't a round out there that has this much power and accuracy for the price. Cleaning isn't a big deal, it's only one more step in the usual cleaning process and as for the can opener, a hammer and a flat head screw driver does wonders; the metal on the can is really soft so it doesn't take much to peel it off. Happy Hunting
Satisfied
Review by Ongar on 1/16/13

Fast Shipping! Have not opened the can yet. Can has minor rust around the edges and had cardboard stuck to it. Can seems to still be pressurized so I can assume that the ammo inside is still good. No can opener but nothing a good knife cant get into. Overall satisfied with my purchase.
Best for the Money and Power to Shoot
Review by ClassicArms on 9/27/12
Quality
You can't beat the price and the power of this rifle. Youtube videos revealed devastating power of this powerful cartridge of 7.64X54. The casing of this round is bigger and has more powder than 30.06. 30.06 will shoot further and more accurate for sure but it costs much more in rifle and ammo. I would opt for this and bought 6 with 1680 rounds with various sellers. History said the Russian sniper hit his intented target 800 meters away. If 5.45X39 can reach out to 1000 to 1300 meters some information said, shouldn't 7.62X54 reach further? Have not come across information that anyone has test the true accuracy distance of 7.62X54. May be I will do it when I get a chance. God bless everyone.

I've put 200 rounds thru my mosin nagant without a single mishap. My Mosin and I just love this ammo. I do get tired of cleaning the barrel, but it's worth it.
