Today I shot my new Savage .308 and used Federal 7.62X51 FMJ ammo, grouping nicely at 100 yards. I went to Remington Core-Lokt .308 rounds and both my dad and I had a hard time keeping tight groupings. From what I hear a fair number of guns have some preference. I just haven't found the right round for deer hunting yet, as the FMJ simply will not do. I also await an answer to this question.

What rounds can be fired from a 30-06 rifle?
Only ammo marked "30-06" on the case head- or military ammo for "US Rifle Caliber .30".

It was abandoned due to the adapter coming loose during prolonged firing. .32 acp can also be fired through a .30-06 with a cartridge adapter. The M1 Garand rifle is designed to fire a specific loading called "M2 Ball" ONLY. Anything else at your own risk. .32 acp adapters are currently available.
