How do 7.62x39 Ballistics Compare to Other Rifle Cartridges?
The 7.62x39 Soviet, not to be confused with the 7.62 NATO, is an intermediate rifle cartridge often fired from an SKS, AK-47, and other light machine guns, so there are plenty of other cartridges to compare it to.
It’s much more capable than handgun calibers, such as the 45 ACP, but it can’t compete when stacked up against long-range calibers like the 6.5 Creedmoor.
