I run sst on deer and coyotes and hollow points on hogs. Any soft points will work just fine on any animal. I have had issues feeding in ar platforms but my bolt guns zero issues.
I have 6.5 and accuracy is excellent, started out under 1” with 130-131 grain grind hard ammo and s&b soft point, now over 100 rounds and accuracy with 140-143 hornady eld with warm barrel 6 shot group 1” running PA 3-18x50 scope. I’m no precision shooter either. Also this barrel has not been...
Had one and traded next day, Would not run anything I put it in good or cheap without malfunctions, Running suppressor makes it worse. Buy mp-15 22 pistol as I did and better gun period!
I’m referring to 7.62x39 and 308 guns have the adjustable Gasblocks for running suppressed and subsonic ammo mostly, I agree on less moving parts for a reliable operation definitely and my other guns are all factory except triggers. Di guns are still very reliable no question.
Didn’t say they would not run but definitely makes a difference on recoil and less gas back at bcg and running different bullet weight etc. I only have two di guns the rest are factory piston guns and my opinion better anyway! PWS,LMT and LWRC.
Online is best for x39 and to purchase in bulk. Plenty of it to buy, Just bought some 5.45x39 since I don't own the panic 223/556 ammo running guns anymore.
Great place to go, They have 10x the guns in back and at one time the largest Browning stocking dealer in The USA.. Family owned and Family run and Great customer service!! Just don't expect getting through on Phone as its busy busy.
