This is the "and" from my .223/5.56 question....same question, actually....
As I recall, if your rifle is marked 7.62 NATO you're good to go with either .308 or 7.62 but if your rifle is marked .308 you should stick to .308. I hope it's not the reverse but my memory ain't that great.
Feel free to discuss semi-auto platforms like the M1A - but my question is, what about a typical bolt action rifle - if your bolt gun is marked .308 does it matter nearly as much as in a mil-spec semi-auto type of rifle?
This is not a new subject and I have discussed it with people before. My problem is, I can't remember!
Thanks.
