Trying to keep your AK-47 hot on a budget? Tula wants to help you do exactly that. This 7.62x39 cartridge features the Russian manufacturer’s steel shell casing. By cutting copper out of the equation, steel cased ammunition is a lot more cost-effective than the brass cased variety. You won’t be able to reload steel casings, and you’ll experience more carbon fouling in your chamber with them – but those are tradeoffs that a lot of shooters looking for a great deal are happy to accept!
This cartridge features a 124 grain soft point projectile. It’s the most basic type of expanding bullet, with an exposed core that causes deformation and tumbling when it connects with soft tissue. That makes this ammo a practical selection for self-defense when it comes down to you and your Kalashnikov. This round’s bullet slams into its target with 1,495 ft lbs of muzzle energy. To put that in perspective, that’s about five times more powerful than the minimum usually recommended for self-defense!
