A: Hi David! 308 Win is often loaded a little bit "hotter" than 7.62x51. It's not as extreme as the difference between 5.56x45 and 223 Rem, however, and even SAAMI doesn't consider it unsafe to run 308 through a 7.62. Your Springfield should be able to run this ammo just fine, but if you wanted to be as careful as could be you would stick to 7.62
