Bench rest rifle, no. Battle rifle, yes. the drop at 300 yards is about 27 in. This is comparable to other 30cal rounds. Its still has 634 ft-lbs of energy at that distance. Which is more than enough to go through paper, skin, bone, whatever. The reason they don't make match ammo for the round is the Wolf stuff is so cheep no one can compete on price, but I reload this round all the time with a 150 gr btsp, its just as accurate as any .223.
Y'all need to come up for the Machine Gun Shoot in April, at Knob Creek!

Why the 7.62 x 39 is leaving the barrel at about 2400 fps that is more than enough to reach out to 300 hundred yards, 1000 yard might be pushing it.

I'm not a big fan of FALs but yours looks great.

Is there such thing as a 30 round magazine for a 7.62x51mm gun? I've heard of a 40 round magazine for 5.56 on Bushmaster,com
