What I was told was "urban" 7.62x54r that wouldn't go through walls.  Very light bullet weight, rounded nose; white tip, IIRC.

Don't know the real story on it.  I've also read it's training ammo.


Its low recoil training ammo.

Edit: beat to it... should have read the rest of the thread

7.62x45 and the rifle for it

44 russian

44 american

5mm rimfire

9mm glazer rounds, blue tip


I saw a box of Remington 5mm rimfire at the fun show today.  What is it for?


Back in the day they marketed a 5mm remington rifle, it was an awesome rifle, but it never caught on as well as the newer rimfires have, and faded away to obscurity

I have some North Korean 7.62x39 rds. Funny story, but a co-worker of mine actually found them in the parking lot of a local Dollar General. Don't remember where I put them, but I looked up the headstamp, and they were from North Korea. Also have some .50 BMG from 1942 linked with 4-1 tracers rds. Lots of .30-06 blanks from WWII.


Uhhhh, thats sorta creepy.

Considering that the Norks started using x39 around the same time hostilities began between us and them.

Somewhere around here I've got a NORMA 9.3x74R round but it isn't shaped like a normal 9.3x74R.
It's blown out straight walled and loaded with a RN lead bullet. I think its an old custom reform into a 405 Winchester.

Not really rare/unique, but I guess SS198lf 5.7x28.  Second I guess would be 6.5 Grendel.  It's not at all unique for members of this forum, but IRL no one knows WTF it is.

I have a bunch of 6.5x55 Swedish training ammo.  The bullets are very short and round-nosed, barely protruding from the case neck.





They're LOUD and make a huge muzzle flash.





When I bought them I was hoping they could be fired in my back yard.  No way.



ETA they look like this:
