The M1891, 91/30, M38, M91/56, M44, and all the Finnish variants all fire the 7.62 x 54mm Rimmed cartridge. Usually known as 7.62x54R, or 7.62 Russian.

The only Mosin Nagant rifles which fire a different cartridge are the M1891 rifles captured by the Austro-Hungarian Empire during the First World War. These were converted to fire the 7.92x57 cartridge, and are extremely rare.

What is the submachine gun invented by mikhail kalashnikov in 1947 better known as?

You probably mean the AK-47. But the Ak-47 was not a sub-machine gun, it is an assault rifle. SMG's shoot pistol rounds such as 9x19mm Luger. Assault rifles fire scaled down versions of full power rifle rounds. The AK-47 for example shoots 7.62x39mm which is a scaled down version of the Russian 7.62x54mm rifle round used in the Mosin Nagant rifle.

Can you fire a different cartrige than a 7.62x54r in your mosin nagant?

, This is a very unsafe practice. While there are adapters made which allow one to fire pistol .32 caliber ammunition singly through the Mosin-Nagant, there is no rifle cartridge which will interchange with the 7.62x54R. Please do not try it. Josh Smith Smith-Sights.com
