A magnetic recording medium is provided comprising a non-magnetic support and at least one magnetic layer comprising ferromagnetic metal particles principally containing iron, having a spindle shape and having an average major axis length of 0.15 mum or less, and a binder resin, and optionally further comprising, between the support and the magnetic layer, at least one adhesive layer or at least one non-magnetic layer principally containing a non-magnetic inorganic powder and a binder, and wherein center line average surface roughness Ra of the magnetic layer surface being 2 to 6 nm, said recording medium having the following properties; steel ball wear at 23° C. and 70%RH being 2x10-5 to 4x10-5 mm3, surface C/Fe ratio measured by Auger electron spectroscopy being 50 to 100, and coefficient of friction between the magnetic layer surface and an SUS rod having a roughness of 8 to 10 nm being 0.2 to 0.3.
