scoped 11" CAR is "short ranged? It groups 5" at 200m. :-) It's also got a 500 fps speed advantage, and MATCH bthp's available for it, drop in match trigger job parts. etc.

That's irrelevant, AKs aren't built for range, they're built to be soldier proof. Regardless, that group's still good enough to get you in the face...repeatedly.

I believe that the term for the AK is "minute of bad guy".

The 11" AR is short ranged. Not for lack of accuracy (although you WON'T be competitive, much less winning a service rifle match with one), but rather, the bullet falls below its reliable fragmentation velocity much too soon to give a good wound at much range.

Of course some people's idea of a rifle battle is at ranges of less than 100 yards, where the AK has plenty of accuracy to eat your lunch.

P.S. They don't kick hard either. . .

Good quote. Like I said, I can get 5" at 100 yards with Russian ball, but I can still hit a 3/4 Silouhette at 300 yards 8 time out of ten. The AK is a keeper. "Looks like crushed beer cans and orange crate, and shoots like star wars." Sorry, pictures do not come up. Sorry, it did come up!
