I'm in need of help from the pro's and I can't find a solution online.
Pulled some bullets from:
- 7.62x51 surplus ammo
7.62x39 surplus ammo
And also got both Hornady and Sierra .308 diameter bullets shipped directly from Cabelas.
When I caliper them, they all seem to be in the range of 0.3110 to 0.3120, including the 308 diameter bullets from Cabelas.
Does that mean that 308 and 7.62 bullets are basically the same? There is so much online conversation about not loading 308 bullets in 7.62 (because they are 0.311). Am I going to get in trouble loading these 311 bullets in my 308? (even though they are labeled at 308 bullets)
I've tripled checked the calipers, and they are accurate.
Thanks in advance!
