You used to be able to buy a Czech training round in both 7.62x54R and 7.62x39 with a 44gr. roundnose hollow steel bullet.
They had a full powder charge and made a massive muzzle blast but almost no felt recoil. The 7.62x54R round's projectile left the barrel at like 3700 FPS. |

The plastic core 7.62x39mm you refer to is EAST GERMAN training ammunition. Usually it was packed in clear 10 round packs.
The Czech 7.62x54R is a hollow core round, 46gr. in weight. |

I bought 200 rounds of plastic core jacketed ammo at the last gun show, grey case/copper jacket/white painted tip. The bullet is short and that gave some failures to feed. Low recoil, heavier blast than ususal, accuracy was not as good as ball - from a plinking perspective, and it was corrosive. It came 100 rounds loose to a paper box.
