Best AK 47 factory Ammo ?

**Pappabear** · 07-01-20, 17:42

Pablo, my AK47 afficinado told me that Barnaul FMJ was the best AK47 ammo. So I bought a few boxes to test out. Now this is an Arsenal AK with RDS, so my expectations were not high. However, it shot three shots clover leafing then opened up to MOA on last two. I was pretty impressed, anyone else have a brand the have found to be above and beyond?

Joking aside - Lapua 7.62x39 shoots laser beams out of my preban Polytech.

I say joking aside because when you see the price you’ll scoff!

AK Operators Union did a test a while back where he tested using a Labradar chronograph a plethora of 7.62x39. The one I remember being most impressed with was the American Eagle 7.62x39 as it had a 9 fps SD.

Lapua stuff is suprisingly accurate. I think I still have the target my friend shot at 50 yards, a five round group that looked like a clover leaf. Open sights on a VZ-58.

Federal seems to be pretty good stuff as well.

haha the Russian on the video only had 10 rounds to test it was so fkg expensive. But it rocked an SD of 13.9. I have to chrono that Barnaul because it shot so damn good.

And Am Eagle gave an SD of 9, wow
