The rapid adoption of large language models (LLMs) has made quantization a central technique for enabling efficient deployment under real-world hardware and memory constraints. While English-centric evaluations of low-bit quantization are increasingly available, much less is known about its effects on morphologically rich and resource-diverse languages such as Russian. This gap is particularly important given the recent emergence of high-performing Russian and multilingual LLMs. In this work, we conduct a systematic study of 2-, 3-, and 4-bit post-training quantization (PTQ) for state-of-the-art Russian LLMs across different model scales (4B and 32B). Our experimental setup covers both standard uniform quantization and specialized low-bit formats, as well as lightweight finetuning for recovery in the most extreme 2-bit setting. Our findings highlight several important trends: (i) the tolerance of Russian LLMs to quantization differs across model families and scales; (ii) 4-bit quantization is generally robust, especially when advanced formats are used; (iii) 3-bit models expose sensitivity to calibration data and scaling strategies; and (iv) 2-bit models, while severely degraded under naive PTQ, can be partially restored through short finetuning. Empirical results show that the model's domain must be considered when using different quantization techniques.
