AK Caliber Choice

Great read over at OutdoorHub about what caliber to buy an AK in.


For the prospective AK buyer, there’s several things that will need to be taken under consideration.
Choosing a caliber for your AK is one of the most important decisions you’ll need to make. To make an educated decision, you’ll need to ask yourself what exactly you plan on using your AK for – is it going to be a hunting gun, target shooter or just a plinker? To satisfy any of these aims, AK type rifles are available in 7.62x39mm, 5.45x39mm, 7.62x54mmR, 5.56x45mm (.223 Remington) and 7.62x51mm (.308 Winchester). There are also AK pattern weapons in 12-gauge, 20-gauge and .410, though those will not be covered in this article.
