• Q: Dear Ruger Customer:
  We apologize for any confusion and inconvenience. 7.62 x 51 NATO can be fired in any American Centerfire chambered for .308. Military surplus ammunition can vary greatly in its quality and consistency.

  A:

  Newjean, yes Sir. .308 and 7.62 Nato are close enough in cartridge dimensions to be interchangeable. The .308 is actually loaded to a higher pressure than 7.62 Nato and a .308 firearm can fire both no issue.
