Velocity.
7,62 x 39 gives you a 123 grain slug moving at around 2300 feet per second.
A .45 automatic (.45 ACP) gives you 230 grains moving at only 800 fps.

It has
been my experience that just a crappy PC harddrive will stop a
.45 ACP. They don't do so well against a 7.62x54R, though.
Here is
something I dont understand.
.45 is about 11,5 mm, while 7.62 is uuuuhhh 7.62 mm.
How can the .45 come out worst?
