[brstevns]

My guess 7.62x54R

It appears to be as stated above 7.62x54r russian
The 60 code would be the State Factory at Frunze, Kirgisia Russia. The 84 could be year of manufacture. You should have shown the Head stamp

I'd say it's 7.62x54R. Here's a picture of 7.62x54R being formed into 8x56 Steyr:

Pic is clear as mud?

Come on now!
Give us some measurements or is it supposed to be a contest?

Yeah, but even I can see that it's run of the mill surplus 7.62x54R. Back chamfer and red commie primer sealer are dead giveaway.

i could be wrong but umm it aint brass ( take a magnet to it ...) it does indeed look like the 7.62 russian round , mic the inside of the neck , that'll help narrow it down
