I only asked opinion about x39 for hunting, and most opinions were to go for more bang. Also it became safety argument post so decided to create a new one, sorrySeriously???
Sorry, I guess its just me still thinking that I can find rifle that would be cheap to blast away at the range and powerful enough for hunting.Why not just get a decent .308/30-06 hunting rifle.
Even a Savage Axis is better served than trying to rework milsurps for hunting.
The case dimensions of the 7.62X54R do not lend it to be chambered in modern sporting rifles, the Druganov not withstanding. Whether or not a Druganov meets the definition of a sporting rifle might lead to an interesting discussion.
seriously???
