308 is just so expensive compared to 7.62x39. Imho its the perfect caliber for fun/hunting. Its cheap and has way more power than 223.

So any inputs on mini 30s. Ive never shot one

I had forgotten about sks's. Just have few questions. They are a fixed mag? 5 round? Will it shoot accurate enough for pig hunting at 150 yrds max with russian steel case ammo? Who makes the best sks? Can you mount optics on obe? How much are the mounts if you can?

so i've been looking at getting a 7.62x39. This would be mainly used for a range plinker with occasional hunting thrown in. my budget is sub $1000. My first thought was a mini 30 for a couple of reasons. I grew up shooting bolt rifles, so i'm used to the stocks/ergos of them a lot more than the "assault" rifle feel. I've had several ar's and two ak's and they were just never as comfortable to shoot as a bolt gun for me. To me the mini 30's ergo's more match a bolt gun than an ak. On the other hand does anyone have any experience with a ptr 32. http://www.ptr91.com/products/PTR32KC?id=15" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I've never shot a cetme or a clone of one so i'm not at all familiar with how they shoot? are there any other options in 7.62x39 besides an ar or ak? Do they make fal's in 7.62x39?
