I have couple Vepr 308s while it is also available in 7.62x54, I picked 308 because of ammo availability especially most x54 are corrosive and surplus supply is not as abundant as before. However, I notice Vepr 7.62x54 is typically about $50-100 more expensive than the 308 version, so is Saiga AKs.Why folks pay more for 7.62x54? I can understand Dragunov or PSL, to keep it in original caliber, but why other AK type rifles that were not in 7.62x54 originally, especially 7.62x54 is not as available and cheap as before?
