7.62 is 30 caliber. The difference between it and other 7.62 rounds is the cartridge and powder charge behind it.That's so odd....
I thought they only came in 7.62 or something like that.
They were German made, confiscated and ended up in civilians hands after the War...
Our soldiers used 30-06. Ammunition swapping is not usually the case in wartime.
I dunno....
7.62x63 - 30.06
7.62 x 51 - .308
7.62 x 39 - AK round and so far as I know there is no caliber nomenclature for this round.
