RE: 7.62x39
My "inaccurate" AK shot a group I could cover with my finger this week. Granted it is not a military version, but a Saiga chambered for .223. 7.62X39 gets a bad rap from folks using cheap ammo in rifles that were not designed for accuracy in the first place. Also, it is an intermediate range round to begin with, as the ballistics get pretty dismal out past 250. The Wolf ammo I used this week in 7.62X39 was worse than any other ammo I have ever used, it was all over the paper, and many rounds had a bad primer. Also, my barrel looked like that of a muzzleloader after only a few rounds, so I have my doubts about it being non-corrosive as well. Maybe the demands placed on the ammunition industry lately have caused the dip in quality. I know Remington makes cor-lokt in this caliber, so I'll try that next. I don't expect SMOA out of the rifle I am using, but I expect the performance to pick up with better ammo.
