    So how far can you usefully shoot a 7.62x39?

    As per title.

    Interested to know how far you can usefully use the 7.62x39 round.

    My SKS was capable of ummmm, Milk jug at 50m type accuracy.

    Then Jacinda bought it off me.
    (How in the world is she gonna test fire and learn to shoot all these rifles? She has a husband, a child and a country to run)

    I'm sure I coulda hit a barn door at any range under 350 m with it .(as long as it wasn't open.....)

    So how far can you usefully fling a 7.62x39 round?. By usefully, I mean to about consistently about 3 ish MOA accuracy.

    I'm guessing this is one for the handloaders.
