This dude reliably hits:
- White colored targets on white backgroun
- Torso sized, not full body
- With iron sights
- On an AK pattern
- Firing 7.62x39mm
- To 425 yards!
What the fuck is your excuse!!!?
Imagine what's possible with visible targets, optics, 5.45mm, on one of the newer AKs!
Oh wow it's almost like the rifle is fine, as per its intended design.

Uncle Sam meets Mother Russia?
He has a point, niggas be trifling.
The reason you can't hit anything with 7.62x39 is that 300m is the max distance it's supposed to be used.
The AK-47 was designed as a SMG first and foremost and the round to have the same ballistic behavior as 7.62 Tokarev but bringing more power at the end of it's flight envelope for enhanced lethality.
The Sig 550 is an AK (per the Swiss own admittance) and it's a 1 MOA assault rifle.
Sure Swiss manufacturing is near perfection but the 5.6 match grade ammo is what makes the big difference. If it was really the design, like on say a Ruger Mini-14, you just couldn't do that.
What's the point of posting this video? None of this information should be new to any actual gun owners here.
To the old gun culture and military, of course, this is old basic shit. I think the problem is a lot of these New School kids and city folks often times never shoot beyond 25-100 yards and never learn hold overs or the Kentucky WIndage. Also "optics" are such a fucking hot thing some kids have almost never shot iron sights, may have never shot iron sights, and some are under the spell that you can't hit anything over 100 yards with iron sights; scopes of some sort are NECESSARY to hit anything at any distance!
Before you know it you have people that have no experience in bullet drift and drop, don't know what a dope table is. Think that without a super marksmen rifle with full magnification scope that anything at range is magic or luck when hitting. People who are used to blasting man sized targets at 50 paces are lost to a world of those of us who shoot at pop cans at 100 yards. This also leads to reduced standards which leads to lax shooting discipline because of low expectation, they sit and blast a large target at closer range and consider themselves good, they don't shoot at longer range against smaller targets or on paper and miss, get scores and groups that aren't good enough and make you buckled down and actually get better, force yourself to improve. Mediocrity and pride, not an ever driving push to improve towards as perfect as you can be as a man, the humility to make it happen.
The kids who fuck up and don't shoot well and need to buy a new gun or a new optic, not realizing or taking the hit to the ego that its THEM and THEY fucked up. Its always the ammo, the gun, the sights. Too many people blaming the AK47 when its the problem int he AK47 shooter. But you can't tell the kids that.
At least I acknowledge I suck and stay within the range i'm somewhat reliable at.
