Next, Do not shoot 7.62x39 (.311 bullets) through your .308 bore gun. Just don't do it.

Third, a soft point through both lungs is going to kill a deer much better than a gut shot with any fan-dangled bullet (I'm not old, but I think alot of the bullets are fan-dangled). Whatever load you decide to use, make sure you practice with it and can adjust for ranges. That being said, out to 200yrds the 7.62x39 isn't so bad (Arch) as long as you have a decent Zero (150yrds+)

Anyway, have fun! Be safe!
Would you believe, plain old cast boolits have been used to kill game?
