I agree. There are grundles of light bullet options available for .30-cal cartridges.

The 7.63x39 is designed for a 125-gr pill, so there aren't too many bullets lighter than that, but it isn't hard to develop loads with the Speer Plinker or any of the 110-gr soft or hollowpoints.

It wouldn't be hard to have a range of loads from 1000 fps through 2500 with those bullets. Something in there ought to meet any varminting/plinking needs that you could tackle with that type gun.
