    Default Are these GTG?

    As advertized in Centerfire Systems catilog. Chilean Mauser .308 (7.62X51) Model 1895. I already know how these rifles were rechambered for the 7.62 (308) & that they were rebored & rifled.
    My question is in your opinion would these be good shooters & do any of you have any of these rifles that you have shot more than a couple of rounds through it? Thanks in advance.

    I have read that commercial .308 is hotter then mil spec 7.62 and the case shape is not exactly the same. I cannot confirm this is true but you may want to do more research on this before you use .308 ammo!
