The sites I read basically said the Galil was based on the concept of the AK47, but updated and more modern. If you out hunting, like a bear or something, I guarantee this bad boy is gonna stop him, one shot, if you catch anywhere near a vital region.

Um... depends on what you're hunting. A 7.62mm round wont stop a bear on a charge. Yeah that bear that was mensioned was killed by a .22, but it was not charging, and the round was heavily altered (M16s use a .22 also).
Personally I love bolt action rifles because they are simply absolutely the most accurate. With this rifle you sure can hit the bear a number of times, and yeah you will kill it, but I definately wouldnt trust it if I was in the woods.
I've lived out in South Texas where we have wild boards called havolinas (think razorbacks but bigger and just as mean). I've personally been chased by these bastards, and if there wasnt a nice big tree within 30 feet I would have been pretty badly mauled. So when I go out on my friends ranches I always carry my semi-auto 12 gague (9 shells out in less than 9 sec will stop anything). Anyways, just my $.02.
