I snapped up a DPMS Recon used at the local gun store. I cant find where its ever been shot the only damage is where it looks like some one tried to mount a scope on it. My question is the lower receiver says cal 308 the barrel says 7.62x51. I know your not suppose to shoot 308 in a 7.62 chamber and it doesnt actually say 308 WIN anywhere on the gun. The DPMS website lists the gun as a a 308WIN/7.62x51 capable gun the guy who sold me the gun said it was capable of handling both rounds but how much do they know? Any help here? Im not keen on the thing blowing up in my face.
