For homebrew makers, mash stops atround 20%, First distill runs about 40%, second distill goes to 90+, depending on still efficiency. Most purveyors add water on subsequent distills to dilute to desired taxable potency. Russians like to be efficient getting smashed, it's more time effective to consume high proof spirits.
