[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 1583834, member: 3099"] He used a Kreiger barrel too, that's gonna make a bit of a difference. The old .45/70 will go 1000 yards in a good barrel and load for it. I see no reason the 7.62x39 couldn't do it. It's just that the normal AK barrel and ammo ain't usually gonna get [I]that[/I] job done. Edit to add: I meant with good handloads with premium bullets too. Seriously doubt they used Russian mil-surp to do that, but if the twist was right for the bullet weight and velocity it could be done. [/QUOTE]
