Name some rifles that could be converted to 7.62x54R

>>32020395
Famas

>>32020395
Literally all .303 guns

Winchester 1895
Browning BLR
Pretty much any .30-06 boltgun or single shot rifle.

That being said, what would I need to do to make such a conversion.

Is 7.62x54r weaker than 7.62x51? From what I read in /k/ it is, but why? DIfferent powder?

10/22

Think of the 54r as a russian 30-06

>>32020473
I almost bought an Enfield in 54R at a gun show but the vendor was a sketchy, fat little rat of a man and I didn't trust him as far as I could throw him.

They're similar enough that it's not worth getting your undies in a bunch about. 7.5 Swiss too for that matter.

That goes for quite a few vendors at gun shows up here in my neck of the woods, I get all of my shit comes from a shop primarily run by some Nazi fanboy.

From Wiki

>>32020576
Their external ballistics are very similar. Much closer than either are to 30-06

>>32021030
I never realized just how neck-and-neck they are in terms of velocity, damn.

The Russians used converted Ross Rifles to compete in the first few Olympics.

The standard battle round of all major powers taking part in WWII we almost ballisitcally identical.

>>32021425
30-06 has noticeably different ballistics, as do the 6.5mm rounds for obvious reasons

>>32021425
So the Arisaka rounds, Carcano rounds, .30-06, 6,5x55, .303, 7,62x54R, 7,4 MAS and 7,5x55 GP11 are all similar?
