I have approx. 700 rounds of this ammo 7.62 X 51mm ball FNM 80-69. Does anyone what weight of the bullet is for this particular round????

Mil surplus rarely goes much more than that.

Best way to find out for sure is to sacrifice one and pull the bullet from the case. Weigh the bullet and powder.

Only know of three weights of surplus ammo 147gr, 150gr and 175gr.
