Russian 7.62X54R surplus ammo

You didn't get one with your ammo? This is the right tool for opening these cans



You could probably get the same result using a sharp chisel (metal-cutting not wood!), hammer, and 20 minutes

I have opened these cans with both an old chisel and the can opener you get with a case of ammo. To be quite honest, I had better luck with the chisel-it took much less time. You just need to be careful and keep the chisel as close as possible to the edge without hitting any cartridges.
