If there you could buy one or the other which one or are they basicly the same? i've run both silver bear (hp) and brown bear (fmj) through mine with no problems out of either.

KySoldier 2 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 You should ask yourself what you're planning on shooting, soft or hard targets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
saigafan2008 0 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 If you shoot at a range, check with them. Some ranges (like the one I use) won't let you shoot FMJ rifle rounds. Carl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mstranglr 9 Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 My Saigas don't care, they eat both equally. The HP is a better hunting / anti-personnel round. The FMJ gives awesome penetration. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrWho 10 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 so hp. for defense? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalioth 405 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) Not sure if y'all have looked, but there is very little difference in HP vs FMJ. The ammo plant just puts a pinhole in the end of the FMJ and calls it HP, as far as I can tell. ETA: If you want expansion, look at the 'soft point' 7.62x39.
