  Michael sometimes errs on the side of brevity[:D]
  
  Same cartridge just different way of referencing it. And the "R" stands for rimmed.
  
  This round is the Russian near-equivalent of our 30-06.
  
  
  
  If you only have time to do two things so-so, or one thing well ... do the one thing!

  Yes, belive contender man the 7.62x54 is along our 30-06, it is MORE POWERFUL than the British .303 and even the .308 despite what others might say.
