If you have some left, check and see if any of the bullets are loose.

Your SCAR is actually 7.62x51mm NATO, not .308 Winchester.

Doesn’t look good for anyone wanting to reload.

[mylife]

Nope.

But the rifles work like a hose.
The Cetme has that funky fluted chamber.
Even if it didnt dent them I would not reload them.
.308 has pretty violent extraction.

[mylife]

Good point .308 win is hotter.

[mylife]

My Vepr is 308 Win
The Cetmes are 7.62x51. but I run them with .308 win all the time.

[mylife]

I wish I had grabbed an old Spanish FR8 when they were like $250

I can when I re-structure the range to 300yds, but at its current 100yds, it's a waste of .50cal BMG ammo. The Leupold BOR System likes l-o-n-g distances, but will instantly adapt to any distance. I like to run out to 1,000-1,500yds, and I have a friend's farm up north with a 1,500yd range on 500 acres. The few remaining commercial long ranges suck; too many "mall ninjas" posturing with nice toys they've hardly/never shot well.

[mylife]

No mucked up brass there. ☺

[Clint N. Suhks]

LOL you are correct! The ammo is Winchester 7.62x51 White Box. I’ve read White Box is crap. I have shot .308 WIN out of the SCAR and it cycled just fine.

I think I may buy some Hornady and give it a try and see if anything happens. I had one other jam with this White Box junk not ejecting, had to poke it out with a cleaning rod a couple months ago.

[mylife]

I have just the place for that 50 BMG ☺ bring it on down!

[smokingfrog]

I bet that would bark like an M44.

[mylife]

Damn skippy!

[smokingfrog]

I have shot lots of white box in the G23 with no problems.

[2111USMC]

"mall ninjas"

LOL!

[mylife]

Note it has the cool Cetme style bayonet lug with the cleaning kit underneath.

[mylife]

looks like its set up to launch 22mm NATO grenades too

[mylife]

[2111USMC]

Damn c_h! That BOR system looks fantastic!

[smokingfrog]

You should get some Lake City M80

[Clint N. Suhks]

Never heard of it.

Checking the Google now.
