![]() I used to rip Hirtenburger through my HK21 and G3s like it was nothing. This 7.62x39mm loading has been designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound. because (1) both are standard chamberings for these type of cheap, simple rifles, (2) the ammo is easily found everywhere, (3) both these rounds have subsonic factory ammo avalible, and (4), I already have other guns chambered in both callibers and dont need to start up with another new one. 308s for that matter, as much as I used to. Im wanting either the 7.62x39 or 308 Win. Then I fired Factory Lapua 200 gr FMJ subs and they shot great, so great I. I wanted to stack aside an additional 40,000 rounds but I believed I was going to be moving and didn't want to add the weight, it would have also been a little financially irresponsible so I just don't shoot my AKs, or my. Instead, it is the result of over two years of collaboration between the ballisticians at the Barnaul factory and testing and feedback from experts in the. 7.62x39, but it works very well as a light bullet in any. Then I got double barreled by the "great ammo drought" that came with the Obama election combined with budget considerations following the housing market collapse. Although the two rounds have similar bullet weights (123 vs 125 gr), the 300 BLK is typically loaded with. However, 300 BLK ammo has a BC around 0.35 in general. Which is cool, everyone likes a new gun, but just don't try and justify your BS.įor almost 10 years I maintained a minimum of 10,000 rounds of 7.62x39, but when you have AKs for $300 and 1,000 rounds are $99 shipped you do tend to burn through it easily. Some of the heavier subsonic bullets for 300 Blackout have extremely high BC, such as the 208 gr Hornady 300 Blackout ammo (A-Max), at 0.648. Second My Old Boss and I had this debate 10+years ago, we ran the debate round and around and come to find out, he just wanted an excuse for another rifle. If I wasn't concerned with subs is it realistic to assume that both calibers are relatively equal and then if I stick with x39 which platform will deliver the most accuracy and reliability?įirst, Anyone barking about X39 prices didn't stack it very deep did they? I've got some very good "Golden Tiger" in the closet. I have a decent amount of 7.62x39 ammo, zero of 300BO. While some may disagree with this, the x39 isn't nearly the hit in an AR system as the 300BO is. The Ruger Mini-14 shoots both, but then you run into the proprietary mags with either caliber. ![]() Sure, the 300BO has an advantage as far as suppressed shooting goes, but for supers the x39 has some good ammo out there in 2023 that I would think to be the equal of it's rival it's not like we're talking 1996 and imported FMJ ammo exclusively.Īs far as platforms goes, I think the 300BO is primarily AR-centric and the x39 dwells in Kalashnikov land.however, there are weapons not AK-based that fire x39. I ask this here in GD because it involves both a cartridge/ballistic question as well as one of platforms. is 300BO worth it as opposed to 7.62x39?
