7.62mm Thumper is a barrel specification optimized to run larger bullets out of standard 7.62×39mm cases. Barrels are cut to a standard 7.62×39mm "Russian" chamber but the bore ideally uses a faster 1:8" rifling twist rate in order to stabilize bullets heavier than 200gr at subsonic speeds. Bores are also cut to .308" instead of the wider .311" diameter standard for 7.62×39mm, which allows reloaders to accurately employ the much more common and diverse .308 bullets, which are widely available in
