Allot of good info there, thanks for the links.

It seems to be that a .223/5.56x45 fired from a proper barrel will produce more permanent tissue dissrupttion through fragmentation vs a 5.45x39 that produces less permanent damage but more temporary tissue damage through yaw.

Okey. Me a bit slow for mathing, so you help me yuh?

Q: Since it is my current circumstance I am in the market for a Saiga, which typically have a 1:9 -1:10 twist rate (for .223), what would I need for a barrel length in said twist rate to get matched or better wound ballistic performance from a .223/5.56x45 than the soviet 5.45x39?
