7.62×25mm Tokarev is a Soviet Russian bottlenecked pistol cartridge widely used in former Soviet and Soviet satellite states, China and Pakistan among other countries. The cartridge has since been replaced in Russian service by the 9×18mm Makarov, but it is still produced widely today and is used often by shooting enthusiasts for its low recoil, high-velocity and cheap cost. There is so much surplus ammunition on the market that there is actually not enough weapons for it. Since it has become popular with target shooters, hollow-points have also been produced for self-defense.
