30 Rounds of 123gr FMJ 7.62x39mm Ammo by Red Army Standard

7.62x39 ammo first began production in 1944 for the purpose of use by the Soviet Union’s military. The first gun chambered in it was the RPD, but that isn’t the first gun that tends to come to mind when this cartridge is mentioned. It’s perhaps best known for its use in the SKS and AK-47, both of which remain popular after decades of use. One reason the 7.62x39mm is so popular among both military shooters and civilians is thanks to its performance in a wide range of temperatures. This cartridge has proven it can perform in temps ranging from -50 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius (-58 degrees Fahrenheit to 122 degrees Fahrenheit).

These particular 7.62x39mm rounds are manufactured by the Red Army Standard company. At 123 grain these are considered lightweight for the cartridge size. Being so lightweight enables them to race down-range at higher speeds than their heavier counterparts and also means they produce a bit less felt recoil. These are FMJ, Full Metal Jacket, rounds and do not expand on impact. Target rounds fired from rifles can travel for miles before coming to a stop which is one reason it’s absolutely vital to have a solid backstop in place during range time. This ammunition is meant for target practice and plinking.
