30.06 Question

[kinetic711]

This might be a dumb question but here goes; can I fire a 7.62x63 cartridge from my 30.06 deer rifle? I just want to make sure before I try it.

7.62X63 is the metric designation for 30 06, just like 7.62x51 is a 308...

So yes I believe you can.

Any reloading manual will give you very specific dimensions on pretty well any cartridge out there to the nearest thou. Easy enough to tell from that if you have a friend that reloads.
