I have some Norma 120 gr .264 bullets. They are FMJ boat tail. The look very similar to what you have.

I thought that initially and second thought it. Guess i should go look in my book. For some reason i had it in my head those were .311 must be confusing it with 303 brit maybe

7.62 Russian (whether X39 or X54R) are nominally 0.310", so as you surmised they would be undersize for this cartridge. @Doom 's suggestion of Hornady 308s seems much more likely.
 
Think you may have it pegged on that hornady. Got a couple hundred of them guess ill hold on to them in case i decide to get a 308...
