I recently pick this belted ammo up in a garage sale
and the best I can determine doing research is that
it is Russianicon 7.62x54r rimmed ammo.

The headstamp reads 188 over 83
I have been able to determine its from the
188 (Klimov/Novosibirsk) plant

I was wondering if anyone might know the type of
machine gun that would have used this belted ammo ?

Thanks for any help, it is appreciated ...
