LMAO. I was waiting for someone to bring up the Blackout. It's slightly less powerful than the 7.62x39. Somehow the Blackout is a good choice but the Russian is a bad one.
No. As I can not even fathom a decent reason for a bolt gun chambered in 7.62x39 so I am not referring to that, the fact that one works in a rifle that is actually designed to be shot well and not for unskilled conscripts is why I would choose the Blackout over the 7.62x39. I would, and do, prefer the 223/5.56 for killing over both.

even though it is a re-invention of an old cartridge, albeit slightly less powerful, it's better 'cause it's NEW.... grin

Can't comprehend some have such disdain for the 7.62X39, just because it was designed for another military? Deer don't know that either.

I can only comment that it is a fine cast bullet case and wonderfully accurate in the CZ-527.

Deer and other game haven't yet had time to develop resistance to new cartridges. Bruce That cannot be true! According to many sources, you have to use the newer cartridges because the deer have evolved - just like bacteria. Most deer are 30 calibre resistant. You have to step up to 338 or else you will not be successful. Cervidae Magnumus and Cervidae Pistrix Pistrix are emergent species that cannot be felled by something as pitiful as a 30-30 or 308.

I am going to edvelop a a wildcat based on the 38-55, and reverse taper the front of the case to .375, trim off the rim, and design a raise or side-swing block rifle that you pop the cartidge in base first. i am going to call it the
