T
he Soviet 7.62x39mm is one of the all-time great inter-
mediate cartridges, and it remains hugely popular to-
day. Its wide-spread acceptance among U.S. shooters
is due chiefly to two reasons. The first is its ability to throw
moderate weight .30-caliber projectiles at a respectable ve-
locity. The second is its economical nature. Imported steel
case ammunition is typically very reasonably priced and
can easily be purchased in volume. This is very appealing,
especially while we are experiencing yet another panic buy
of ammunition with no end in sight. While the 7.62x39mm
is linked to the Kalashnikov rifle, that is not its only home.
There are a variety of other rifles chambered for this popular
caliber, including AR-15s. [Cont. to page 12]

The trigger group has the internals inspected and

is meant to preclude accidental discharges, and this
is done by means of a long and gritty trigger pull.

as security. Turns out, I was safer there than I’ve
been on some Skeet and Trap ranges. Every-
one kept their fingers out of the trigger guards.
Everyone was careful where they pointed muz-

like they had another semester or three to go
before they were eighteen years old) walked
around dangling their AK by the pistol grip, with
the muzzle almost in the dirt, but it was pointed
safely. Someone had put the fear of God into the
security people, and muzzles were safely pointed.

There’s just no place to conveniently bolt it down.
(And the echoes, of the steel, would make your music

Picatinny rail section and then bolting it to the gas

sure there’s a solution to the T34 problem.) He then
attaches the red-dot optic to the pic rail. And just to

IN SOVIET RUSSIA,
W
hile the AR-15 is undeniably America’s dar-
ling, there are now more AKs in circulation
in this country than ever before, and most
of them are chambered in the original 7.62x39mm
cartridge.
While the 7.62x39 is considered the “intermedi-
ate assault rifle cartridge against which all others
are judged,” few people actually know what kind of
performance they can expect from the cartridge out
of an AK.
For this article, I decided to test seven 7.62x39mm
loads, some similar, several very different. I chose
them based on a number of factors — availability,
price, and (advertised) performance. My ammo list
included American Eagle FMJ, premium defensive
ammo from Winchester and Hornady, and steel-cased
Russian-made ammo from Wolf and Barnaul. My
plan was to measure velocity, accuracy, and terminal
performance using ballistic gel blocks.
Group Therapy
The AR-15 is an inherently more accurate design
than the AK. The average accuracy across the board
for commercial ARs currently being made in this
country is 1.2 MOA, which is outstanding. When it
comes to AKs, most guns will do 3–4 MOA, depend-
ing on ammo, which is more than acceptable accuracy
for both defensive and hunting use at the distances
