Most 7.62 Tokarev ammo is 1200fps+ and some of it is loaded up to 1800fps, albeit that may be out of a submachinegun and a lot of that ammo is only recommended for such applications and not in most common handguns like TT33 or CZ52 types.<br />SofwareJanitorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10511295863793065111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1406088964942152547.post-75200747391496745992022-01-14T13:18:39.131-05:002022-01-14T13:18:39.131-05:007.62 Tokarev morphs into 30 Super Carry, "the...7.62 Tokarev morphs into 30 Super Carry, "there is nothing new under the sun".

The research on a hot .30 has already been done and its been found wanting. Because (I think) people associate a man stopping cartridge with bore size. The bigger the better.<br /><br />Maybe this new .30 has less report than the older cartridges ? I owned a .30 Carbine Ruger Blackhawk with easy to deal recoil, but report was LOUD. I began to flinch because of anticipation and that caused me to sell off, regretably. Except for that one quirk, the Blackhawk was a flat shooting sumbitch.<br /><br />jrgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
