Ok, Im confused. If ranges are going by penetration factor then why not the 7.62X39? If I remember right the 5.56x45 has more FPS than a 7.62X39 so wouldnt it be not as deadly?

If it is the fact that the ranges cant sell steel cases to reloders then why not again the 7.62X39? They make those in brass cases.
