What guns will a 308 ammo shoot through?

Assuming that you are referring to the .308 Winchester cartridge, listing every firearm capable of utilizing it would be exceedingly difficult. The .308 Winchester (and the closely related 7.62x51mm NATO) represents a refinement of the earlier .30-06 Springfield cartridge into a package of similar power but smaller dimensions capable of operating in a larger variety of firearms.

Almost every major firearms manufacturer who produces rifles (especially true of those in the US) will have multiple models which accept the .308 Winchester cartridge. While in prior eras there was some concern about the interchanging of 7.62x51mm NATO and .308 most any firearm manufactured this millennium capable of chambering one can chamber the other, this serves to further expand what is already an extremely large list. While overwhelmingly a rifle cartridge, there have even been a small number of niche handguns designed to fire this popular cartridge.
