I don't have an AK. Have a x39 bolt that I am starting to load for and that won't help. I honestly would search Youtube and Full30 for stuff by IV8888. He reloads and might have some input on the subject. I would take his advice anyway. He loads a lot of stuff and is experienced enough from what I have seen to be a reliable source. If you are unsure go a hair lower than what he recommends and work up.
