I´m taking the Trans-Manchurian from Moscow this spring, and need to enter an exit-date on my visa application - anyone knows exactly how long it takes from Moscow to the russian-chinese border? It should be 5 days non-stop,right?

Yes, it should be about 5 days, but you're highly recommended to allow yourself some more time, so, if you were leaving, say on 5 April from Moscow, I woud put 15 April instead of 10 April, just in case.

Note, that a tourist visa can be valid for up to 30 days, but normally it is considered a bit too long by Russian embassies, so the period when nobody asks you any questions is usually 15-21 days. If you get a visa for 30 days, they may ask you why you're going there for so long. Usually, in the USA or UK the Russian consulates don't ask this kind of questions though
