Even though the gun is technically chambered for 7.62 NATO,it is a strong Mauser 98 model action and it will be able to handle the small increase in pressure with no problems.
Most 7.62 barrels are a 1 in 12 twist which should be able to stabilize up to a 200 grain bullet with no problems. |

Maximum pressure for the 8mm is 56,560 CIP
Maximum pressure for 308 Winchester is 60,191 CPI I don't think there would be a problem with the 308 |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Pic? Was it done well? I'm sort of a sucker for sporterized milsurps that were done well. Some of those from the 50s, 60s and even 70s are works of art.

I know of people that use their Israeli mausers to test questionable surplus ammo, because they trust the action to handle it if shit goes sideways
Any properly made commercial .308 is fine in one. |
