    Not sure about the Czech silver tip but the Bulgarian silver tip mil-surp 7.62x 54r is some of the best steel core you can get, top shelf ammo, only bass case is better. :thumbsup:

    Was this the stuff that was in the light blue cardboard boxes, 20 rounds to a box?
    If so it was great ammo, and had lighter recoil, if I remember correctly. Wow, I haven't seen that stuff in years.

    As far as the recoil, you may be thinking of the 46gr, low recoil training rounds. They come in a more squarish light blue box and have a hollow bullet, white, round tip nose. The 147 or 148gr silver tips are in a more flat-ish light blue box, sometimes with a silver strip on the box. These are steel core, silver tip rounds, with standard Mosin recoil. Hope this helps possibly.

    I have a few of those rounds, a friend of mine was a sniper in the Czech military and brought them back for his girlfriend to shoot out of his PSL rifle due to the Light recoil. He was issued a dragunov while serving but unfortunately not able to obtain one here stateside.
