I don't know about New Zealand but in the US, our majority of 7.62x54R came from Ukraine. With the current conflict, surplus 54R is drying up in the States. Right now I'm sitting on about 500 rounds of the stuff that I got cheap back in the day. The supply issue has gotten to the point that I sold some of my Milsurp Mosins.
As for 7.62x39mm, I just wish we could get the copper wash Norinco. But President Bill Clinton banned all Chinese ammo from import into the US. That stuff was cheap and nice.
