I know the VEPR in 7.62x54R is very accurate (23" barrel). When I shot the VEPR I had a 3" group on paper at 100 yds with Iron sights standing. I think the Mosin is more accurate, but I was impressed as that was my first experience with it. I thought the C39 AK47 that I saw was of exceptional quality. I don't see much 5.45x39mm ammo anywhere, so I would shy away from it and stick with the 7.62x54R or the 7.62x39, which everyone has. The 7.62x54R is especially reasonable that a spam can had still be had for under $100. How well do AK & VEPR barrels hold up with corrosive ammo out of curiosity?
And I think the AK's have their reputation from all the untrained masses that have near zero idea that aimed fire is best. I've seen quite a few films from war zones whereby they don't even use the sights, and I am not talking close quarters combat but at ranges from 100-300 yards.
