5.45x39, .223, 7.62x39 - Which should I get?
 Author: Greywolf© April 6, 2000 at 04:44:21 
    Hi there. I am about to purchase a SAR rifle and wanted to know which caliber I should get? The ammo prices favor the 7.62x39 (1/2 the cost of 5.45x39 or .223), the magazine costs favor the 5.45x39.

You can reload 7.62x39 and. 223, but not 5.45x39 (yet.)

So, what are the advantages in accuracy and hitting power,
as well as armor penetration, between these three rounds?

Thanks for the help!
