[QUOTE="Wiley, post: 5024563, member: 15835"] LOTS of rounds will fit chambers and the bolt close on rounds that are not for that weapon. One in particular is the M1 Garand. Regular/commercial 30-06 ammo should never be fired in one even though it’s chambered in 30-06. As to the 7.62, 308 ammo fits the chamber but is loaded to higher pressures. Every loading manual that I have points these issues out. I’ll trust those books before I take advice from an Internet forum in something that could get me maimed or killed. [/QUOTE]
