Using Nosler's E-Tip lead-free Spitzer boat tail bullet type they're designed for accuracy penetration and expansion.

The 7.62x39mm round isn't well-known as a big game hunting round in the United States and is usually seen as a varminter caliber. However with the right load and at reasonable ranges like these 123-grain hollow points it'll definitely get the job done. These have a muzzle velocity of 2350 fps (feet per second) and muzzle energy of 1508 ft-lb (foot-pounds). Zeroed at 100 yards that translates to 2099 fps and 1204 ft-lb with a 6.4-inch drop at 200 yards. Zeroed at 200 yards results in 1865 fps 950 ft-lb a 3.2-inch rise at 100 yards and a 13.3-inch drop at 300 yards. Obviously this makes the 7.62x39mm an ideal short-range caliber for use in heavy brush or timber. For an ethical shot (along with shot placement of course) the hunter should be working at around 100-150 yards. Nosler's brass-cased centerfire rifle ammunition is suitable for reloading over many cycles unlike more common 7.62x39mm steel-cased brands.
