    7.62x39


    Will 7.62x39 feed from a long action?

    I would think it probably would although the recoil would shove the rounds forward and may cause a little difficulty.

    I've put 22-250 & 243 barrels on a long action with minimum hassle but the 7.62x39 is a bit different in shape. You may have to do a little feed lip adjusting.

    I've done a 22-250 from a 7mm rem mag with no issues, so I wouldn't loose sleep over it. May need some tweeking, but certainly not a catastrophy.


    **Edit**
    the 7.62X39mm doesn't have any recoil anyway, so that wouldn't present an issue

    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.
