Steve M. asked 7 years ago:
Steve, yes Sir. The 308 is actually the higher pressure of the two rounds so 7.62x51 NATO will fire fine. Very similar to shooting .223 from a 5.56 Chambered firearm. No issues.

Yes it can you can use the lower pressure 7.62 Nato rounds in a .308 but you should not use .308 in a 7.62 Nato gun
