mosin problems

[tank29885 0]

I have found a mosin and i'm sure i have the right ammunition for it.  but it wont let me load the weapon.  It says the ammunition doesn't fit, any ideas what im doing wrong?  i think the amo i have is the 7.6something...

That could be it actually. I'll look, thanks

The mosin uses 7.62 x 54r (I believe it's 51 in game for some reason) right now there's 7.62x51 and 7.62x39 which is what the AKM/47 and SKS uses.

i have a feeling they probably made it 762x51 so when they add the .308 they will take the same ammo

Yeah they said they are going to fix the ammo, so it will be easier.

I was also going to make a thread about this. Glad I searched first.

 

The M91/30 takes 7.62x54R.

 

I know there are bigger fish to fry, just wanted to do my part as a alpha tester though and point that out.
