7.62x39 Smack down.

I've been testing the new cavity back 7.62x39 125gr bullets performance has been exceptionally good.

Nice hunt. Did you tag yourself with the scope between the eyes?

No that is my ATN Thor mark lol. They put some kind of rectangle that blocks a large portion of the screen in the eyepiece so you need to get right up on it to see the full screen. I told myself it was going to happen it only took three shots.

Good, now I don't feel so bad. When I hunted with my daughter I grabbed her rifle to finish off a hog and forgot that I had it shortened for her and tagged myself. I thought I was just sweating a lot when I wiped my brow, my hand was all bloody. All I could do is laugh at myself since I have laughed at other people for years and now I did it to myself.

I've done it twice now, once with the w1000 which has very short eye relief, and now the Thor with this thing blocking the screen that no one can seem to explain why it's there.

with this thing blocking the screen

You gotta torch?

The 7.62x39 round seems to hold it's own very well against the newer 6.5/6.8 offerings.

Wonder how the accuracy compares.

 

[TEXASLAWMAN]

I think 6.8 will beat it in 16" barrel but in 10" the x39 wins.
