I just got a Romanian Tokarev a month ago and also bought a 1260 round can of surplus polish 1950's ammo. I've heard that 7.62x25 bullet is .307 diameter, but see that some people use up to .309. I pulled a bullet from one of the surplus rounds and it measures .305?? Anybody had problems with surplus ammo for these? .305 seems like it's going to be a bit sloppy.
