History of the .308 Winchester Cartridge:

Winchester introduced the .308 Winchester (Commercial Designation) to the public as a Sporting Cartridge in 1952 for short-action rifles with the power of a long-action rifle cartridge.

The 7.62x51mm NATO or 7.62 NATO (Military Designation) basically same as the .308 Winchester cartridge (but may be loaded to higher pressures then the .308 Winchester) was adopted by U.S. Military in 1954 and by NATO in the early 1950s, but the U.S. Military did not have rifles for the caliber until 1957.

The 7.62 NATO is basically a shortened 30-06 and it replaced the 30-06 as the basic U.S. Military Personnel Rifle until the 5.56×45 NATO, or (.223 Remington) in 1961.The 7.62 NATO is still used by the U.S. Military and other NATO Military countries, and has pasted the test of time as a great hunting and Military cartridge.
