Help please. What kind of ammo? M-74?
Attachment 138839

M74 is the Russian 5.45 X 39 round. Why the can is also stamped 7.62 is a puzzler.

Well that was unexpected. Thanks.

Definitely not 5.45.

That's 7.62 x 54R. Copper washed steel case, light bullet. Made at Novosibirsk.

Anyway, here you go. Have at 'er... Decoding Soviet Military Surplus Ammunition Labels
