Whats the most effective 7.62x39mm amunition on the market for defense?....

My bet would be Corbon hollowpoints or some Magsafe frangible 7.62, or if you are on a budget some cheap wolf 152 grain SP.

whatever you practice with

The most effective rounds are the ones that hit. I ignore the hype and shoot Wolf and Barnaul. I can keep them on a half size silhoute at 100 yards and that's really all that matters.

I can keep wolf in a 3'' group with iron sights at 100 yards. Shooting fairly rapidly. DOH this isn't the AR board JK.

My MAK90 shoots wolf very well. I have shot thousands of rounds of wolf through my MAK and my AR. I have never had 1 malfunction with wolf.

Wolf seems to be much better than silver bear tho. That stuff sucked when I shot it. I killed a nice 8 point buck with Barnaul "hollow points". They didn't expand. Left a .30cal hole all the way threw.
