That depends on which load you plan to use. Generally, military loading of 30-06 would be the closest.
If you know how to use a ballistics calculator, the BDC in the POSP 7.62x54R scopes was built around their sniper load which was a 151gr bullet fired at around 2830fps. G1 BC of that bullet is right around 0.41. G7 BC is right around 0.21 ILya
