How does anyone think this is acceptable? 30 year old 7n6 pushes 3000 fps depending on conditions. yet we have some commercial ammo as slow as 7.62x39mm

It's not suprising, it's why most ARs are over gassed to shit these days, retards shoot steelcase wolf and if the rifle doesn't eat it 100% they bitch it's unreliable.

I have nothing against plinking ammo but it riles my autism that more people aren't aware how fucked that trash is.
>>
>>33376143
tt seems to be their schv rounds that are fucked the most, out of 7.62x39mm and 54r they preform as advertised

This was supposed to be 55gr.

STOP SHITTING ON STEELCASE, you fucking richfag elitist snobs.
>>
>>33376239
Oh, yeah, because being .016" undersized an 7.5gr overweight is totally "shitting on" it, right?
>>
Does it leave the gun an hit the target 250 yards away?

Is it less expensive than the hornady 5.45?

Is it corrosive?

If the answers to these questions are yes, yes and no, then I don't give a flying fuck about losing a few hundred FPS
>>
>>33376256
This.
Stop being so elitist, you're not going to war with this you're putting holes in paper.
>>
>>33376239
Poorfag detected. If you can't afford good ammo, us 22 LR.

If it's like their 5.56, then no you won't be. At least at any range further than you can throw a loaded mag.
>>
>>33376275
DUDE YOU ONLY NEED TO SHOOT STEEL

DUDE POINT OF IMPACT

DUDE
>>
>>33376239
i'm not, and i don't think these problems are due to steelcase or their manufacturer just wolf the importer ordering it loaded lightly and made with cheaper projectiles that would usually been melted back down

>He aims at targets and doesn't shoot his 74 wildly with the stock folded from the back of a moving pickup at a stack of trashed ceramics

It's like you suck cock for a living or something
>>
>>33376289
DUDE THAT'S A 19" WIDE GROUP AT 250 YARDS

DUDE THAT'S MORE THAN TWICE THE SIZE OF AN AVERAGE GONG

DUDE IT KEYHOLES WITH SOME REGULARITY AT 100 YARDS

DUDE IT'S TWICE AS DIRTY AS THE NEXT-WORST 5.56
>>
good steel case like barnual bear or golden tiger is fine imo, just shitty century and tula+wolf
>>
>>33376239
BUY WOLF GOLD, OR PERFECTA, OR AQUILEIA OR RELOAD.
>>
>>33376443

would but no one will produce brass cased 5.45x39mm because ammo companies go into a autistic fit when you suggest they make it
>>
>>33376474
So stop getting asspained when people point out its shortcomings then maybe.

I mean, jesus, you sound like a brass casing raped your dad and kicked your dog.
>>
>>33376495
not asspained just tired of companies that offer it over seas but not here, mainly ppu
>>
>>33376090
>what is bullet weight?

Sure, some of those results are obvious underloading, but some of that velocity loss is the fact that the 7n6 bullet is 53gr while all the new production stuff is 60gr+
>>
>>33376534

yes but golden tiger is 60gr and getting 2910, ras ukrainian is getting almost 2800 with a 70gr.


2600-2500 fps is horrible for a 60gr
>>
>>33376552
The market for 5.45 kinda sucks. It's just the way it is. I'm surprised Hornady even makes loadings for it.

Not to say 5.45 is bad as a cartridge, it's just shitty if you like to have nice ammunition and broad choice of bullet type.
>>
>>33376576
pretty much why i'm sitting on so much 7n6, it's the only stable choice available but it least it causes enough damage to be a okay hunting round
>>
>>33376576
Literally this.
Somewhat regretting 74 saiga as my first gun.
>>
>whining about how a 5.45 load is shit

If you were actually and genuinely concerned about the effectiveness of an intermediate caliber ak, you would buy one in 5.56.

As cool and novel 5.45 is, it pales in comparison to 5.56's effectiveness and general load variety. It isn't 1983 anymore, 7N6 isn't the cool new load and it's as outdated as Hydrashoks are. Be glad that you at least have VMAX 5.45.

If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't have ever bought an SGL31 and gotten a 5.56 Arsenal or better yet, more ammo for my AR with that money.
>>
>>33378113
m885 is a shitty ice pick round, and m885a1 is vapor ware and illegal for civilians to own, m193 is about on par with 7n6 except it's shit out of shorter barrels past 100 meters.

without muh 77gr fudd rounds 5.56 is the same level as 5.45
