No they are not the same and are not interchangable. The .308 is slightly smaller than the 7.92.

8mm mauser or 308 or 270 rifle which nis better?

Depends on your definition of better. All 3 are capable of taking any game found in North America. The 8mm Mauser carries a little more energy than the .308. The .308 may have an edge in accuracy. The .270 is basically the 30-06 necked down to .27 caliber, shoots flatter, due to higher velocity. This is one of those Ford/ Chevy/ Dodge discussions.
