After many months of searching I have a quantity of 7.62x54r in my sticky mitts.This stuff has been a pita to find but as a bonus they all have the current T-46-M projectile, the "M" stands for modified as it is an improved bullet over the older T-46 and has a trajectory that more closely mimics the trajectory of a standard 54r light ball round.
Hopefully next time out at Sennybridge will have some pretty green streaks!.I just need to wipe the protective waxy coat off them and they'll be good to go :good:
