I just bought a new scope and ammo for my 270. When i went to sight my rifle, my ammo (270 winchester super x) was actually 30-06 ammo. I checked the box again and the box was 270 how could this happen? Also what would have happened if i tryed to shoot this? Thanks David

    Hello,

    So is the 5.45x39 a .308?
    what does the 7.62x51 match up with?
    also what about the 7.62x54 does it match up with any other caliber??

    Thanks for the answers.

    I need suggestions on where to buy the cheapest ammo. I have a few calibers I shoot frequently 7.62x39, .45ACP, 12 gauge buck/slug, and .40S&W. I have found with the 7.62x39 round that cheaperthandirt.com has them real cheap in the wolf ammo, and I have yet to have a jam or misfire or feed problem. But as far as the other calibers I have no experience with wolf ammo in them. What are some good sites I can look for for cheap ammo in bulk? Thanks.

    With the .223 will any of the styles work in an AR-15?
    55gr or 60gr? is the 60 a .224?

    Or is each gun specfic to a weight?(I assume it is grams??)

    what about other bullets where you can get many different weights but same caliber. Will all of these work together?

    thanks for any info

    Only ammo that will work, is the .38 Smith & Wesson. NOT THE 38 SPECIAL. Years ago similar ammo for Colt revolvers. Was sold under the .38 New Police name. Collectors item now, very little around.
