It was the civilian counterpart (some say <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clone, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">though they do have minor differences) to the developing 7.62 NATO, which was later adopted by the US military in various capacities &#8211; it still sees some use today.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturers designed the 7.62 NATO round to be a shortened version of the 30-06. The military wanted something a little more practical for automatic weapons &#8211; without compromising much power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though the 7.62 NATO took a little while to catch on in the armed forces &#8211; the military continued using the 30-06 for a while longer &#8211; it saw success in the civilian market as the 308 Winchester. As you probably know, a large demand was from hunters. And the success in the hunting arena has never really tapered off.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remington brought their wealth of knowledge and experience when developing their 308 rounds. Around the 1960s, the popular Remington 700 was chambered in 308 (among many other popular rifle rounds). Since then, they&#8217;ve perfected those designs, and remain one of the most trusted names in the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s hard to beat the versatility of the 308.
