[QUOTE="tmoxley, post: 2866837, member: 107288"] To answer a couple questions: - My typing of 7.62x54mm was in error and I was referring to 7.62x51mm. -I would assume the powder burn rate is appropriate for a semi-auto due to the fact these are sold by IMI specifically as "Semi-Auto Match" -I checked the headspace of the rifle using Clymer .308 go/no-go gauges and the bolt locked on the go and did not close on the no-go. -I have used a chronograph on the rifle using the IMI ammo and came out with an average velocity of 2573 fps at the muzzle, which seems appropriate for a 20 inch barrel.
