I'm looking to buy 2000 round for an old SKS, is ther any diference in the perfomance of the Hollow points over the FMJ's, more accurate or better terminal effects?
I just got some Barnaul 7.62x39 soft point from the address below, it shoots into about 1.5 inches at 50 yards (you may do better, my eyes and AK sights dont always get along) and seems a little hotter than the Wolf ammo I got. (both H.P. and FMJ) I think you will probably get better terminal performance from the soft point. I get about the same accuracy from the Wolf and use that for blasting. The Barnaul is a little more expensive, I paid $140 with shipping for 2 500 round cases, the Wolf was about $90/1000.
Accuracy wise there is no difference.As far as being HP,it doesn't expand on impact,but it does tumble rather than punching through.for hunting SP would probably be best.
