Has anyone has any experience of the above?

I've just watched an IV8888 vid on Youtube and he really rates it.

I always thought the "R" was for "Rimmed".

It does, generally. And specifically "Russian" is not the exact nomenclature, more of a colloquialism.

7,62x39 Russian, 7,62x54 Rimmed however most people do refer to the 45R as Russian and I have even seen it described a 7,62x54 Nagant which is completely wrong. As long as you know what you are shooting and what it takes there is no problem.

I do remember being confused when someone gave me a box of 7,62x56 many years ago :oops:
