I think they are using the 7.62 x 54 round used in the Dragunov.

I guess it's possible, but that some illiterate, uneducated Iranian peasant can tell a wound difference between a 7.62x54, and a 7.62x51 Nato bullet seems unlikely to me.
Although at least the story would start to make some sense then. Our guys take up the using Dragunov rifles to throw the enemies off in terms of report similarity and wound characteristics, and how this guy describes it is we've taken up using a custom built AK47 and some nonsense about firing machine guns into crowds.
That sounds like a member of the MSM talking about guns.

That would at least make some sense, but why then the heart shots?
