What is this for? My wife thought she was doing me a favor (bless her pointed little head) buying me this stuff, but I was after 7.62 x 54R. What do I have 440 rounds of and what does it fit?:?

Got any pics..?? That would help us a lot in determining exactly what you've got.

But if it's 7.65x53 then it's Argie Mauser ammo as previously mentioned.There is also a rimmed version of the 7.65x53mm called the 7.65x53R, designed for use in break-open rifles. I've never heard of 7.65x54 anything, so I have no clue what that could be.

I'll take a better look at the can again when I get home. It's awfully faded and scratched up. I may have read it wrong. Definitely not 7.62 X 54R.
