30-06 is a 30 cal bullet which should be 300 thou but is really 308 thousandths of an inch and is commonly designated a 7.62 mm NATO which it isn't because that's measured at the inside of the lands, so its actually 7.82mm.
Simple.
7.62 NATO isn't the same thing as 30-06. 7.62 NATO refers to a specific cartridge, not the bullet projectile itself. It's the same as .308 Winchester. 7.62x51mm.
30-06 is 7.62x63mm
Damn, you're right.
I did not expect that response when I saw a notification. I'm so used to the old place where dropping insightfull info is met with arguments.

I'll try to be more combative in the future.
Let me get my AR10, brb.

Now I'm thinking about that copy-pasta about the military guy.
Which one?
