True, the 223 round has practically non-existent recoil. The 7.62x39 kicks pretty hard considering how small it is. Much harder to get back on target in a dangerous situation.

i totally agree. the .223 has a very low recoil so it´s perfect for follow up shots at medium and long range (this is where the AK really sucks). ok i admit the 7,62 does really have more penetrating power. but then again when have “we” last fought against an enemy who wears body armor? only “western” troops use body armor so as long we don´t fight each other i have no problem with the .223 calibre. very accurate, low recoil and a higher ammunition capability. greetings
