A rifle with a 7.62x51 chamber can chamber commercial .308 Winchester ammunition - putting military 7.62x51 ammunition in a rifle with a dedicated .308 Winchester chamber is not recommended. Questions regarding your rifle may be directed at the customer service hotline of the manufacturer, as some imported rifles actually do have a 7.62x51 chamber, but must be stamped as .308 in order to be importable as sporting rifles.
