20 Rounds of 7.62x39 Ammo by Nosler - 123gr Ballistic Tip

The Soviets didn’t intend the 7.62x39 to be used for hunting. We Americans, however, do not take communists’ opinions under consideration, and will use any ammunition for hunting that we please.

Here is proof: Nosler’s own 7.62x39 ammunition, loaded with the acclaimed Oregonian manufacturer’s own Ballistic Tip bullets.

The Ballistic Tip offers impressive in-flight and terminal ballistics. To that first end, it uses its deformation-resistant boat tail and polymer tip to optimize drag and stability. To the second, it features the full-length tapered jacket, dense alloyed lead core, thick jacketed base, long-tailed polymer tip and nose cavity that it needs to deliver the optimal balance of penetration depth and rate of expansion.

If fired from a 24” barrel, this round’s 123 grain Ballistic Tip can easily conserve at least 1,000 ft lbs of energy until around 185 yards. An impressive display of so sleek a bullet’s ability to conserve velocity (0.168 G7 BC)!
