This morning I went to the desert dump to shoot my Arsenal Bulgaria 7.62x39mm milled receiver SAM7 semi-automatic sporting and not-so-sporting gas-operate magazine-fed centerfire rifle.
I tried a new ammo today, Barnaul 123 gr. Lacquered FMJs after it getting rave reviews from Rob Ski over at AK operators union. It put 4 rounds into 1/2” at 25 yards with one flier. Additional groups were all well under an inch. This AK can keep even bulk Tulammo at 4 MOA so I am envisioning this Barnaul holds excellent promise and is only a little pricier. Of course, it along with all steel cased stuff has been banned yet remains abundant and will be imported for a few more years.
This AK continues to impress and its a fan favorite to be sure. I got to the range pre-dawn and was able to observe the muzzle flash from the AK-74 brake I’ve installed, as well as to do some low light shooting with the attached Surefire light. This is my favorite rifle and I’d grab it anytime, day or night,
