    to put it in perspective as a bush gun.....running a 123-125grn projectile its going to be very similar to the 7.62x39mm EXCEPT he will be driving projectile faster and it will have a better SD being skinnier to begin with...now if he running something heavy and blunt like a 150-170grn well it will be shitting all over the x39 or a 30/30 for the same reasons....and nobody, but nobody with any brains, thinks either of those two arent perfectly fine n dandy at bush ranges.
