Assuming you're referring to the Mosin-Nagant rifles, they were designed to use a 7.62x4 rimmed (7.62x4R) cartridge. The Finnish rifles are designed to function ideally with the heavy ball cartridges, while the Soviet (including ones made in France and the USA under contract) and Chinese rifles are optimal with light ball cartridges. A VERY limited number captured by Austria-Hungary during the First World War were rechambered for the 7.92x57 Mauser cartridge, but these are extremely rare, and if you have one with a production date of 1918 or later, I can guarantee you it won't be one of these.
