I hope I'm not repeating something covered from another thread but I recently purchased 100 rounds of russian surplus 7.62x54r ammo from ammunitiontogo.com for my new mosin nagant 91-30. The website claimed it came from one of those 440 round cans I just didn't feel like buying that much at the time. The ammo itself is very light and when i shake the rounds it sounds like a maraca so i can tell there is a good amount of empty space inside the case not filled with powder. Also, when fired the recoil is fairly light and the spent casing doesn't come out hot but almost room temperature. Is this just normal for commie ammo or did I get ripped? I feel like spending the extra dough next time and buying modern loads from Tula or Brown Bear or something. Thanks.
