It fires a 7.62x51mm NATO bullet, which is similar to a .308 Winchester.
Negative, 308 is a 30 caliber bullet and 30 doesn't fit into 25.
Yes- it is called a SABOT ( pronounced say-bow). It permits a .22 caliber bullet (not cartridge, BULLET) to be loaded into a .308 cartridge casing.
Yes it is, it uses a .30 caliber bullet which makes it a 30 caliber
Given the limited information in your question I can only give a general reply. The caliber is the diameter of the rifle groove to groove in thousands of inches. So the difference would be .450" - .308" which equals .142". There are a lot of specified rounds of ammunition that use .308 and .450 bullets. In general the larger caliber bullet would also be more powerful.
A lever action rifle chambered in .308 Winchester.
The "30 W.C.F." means that it is a .30 caliber (.308 bullet diameter), and is commonly referred to as "30-30" today. Bert H.
No You could build a rifle in .306" or any other caliber but you are likely referring to 30.06. A 30.06 rifle is referred to as "30 Caliber" but to be accurate it is nominally .308"

No. The L1A1 Self Loading rifle in in caliber 7.62 x51 mm (7.62 NATO) fires a rimless cartridge with a .308 bullet. The .303 Enfield cartridge is a different shape, has a rim, and fires a .311 bullet. If you compare the two cartridges, totally different in shape.
That will vary depending on the weight of the bullet, length of barrel, etc. Most will run 2800-300 feet per second. However, there was one special .308, the Remington Accelerator, that fired a 55 gr .25 caliber bullet in a plastic sabot, that had speeds around 4,100 fps.
