7.62x25 rifle

They're making semi-auto AR15s with 16” rifle length barrels in this caliber.

I've got a 16" bbl on the way; and i'm giddy with anticipation!


Edit to add:
If you already have a 7.62 bbl around, you can get an insert: http://www.mcace.com/adapters.htm

i have one of these, 7.62x51 > 7.62x25, that i use with my FR-7.

various specialty TC barrel makers offer this cambering as well.

In theory you could do a single shot on a savage platform too and I have in fact seen one bbl for sale

Right on... other folks thoughts on the economical aspects can be read in this thread

as well as on the blurb on cncgunsparts website.

Personally, i find i go through a lot more ammo in the semi's than the bolts or single shots, so the loot for a TC barrel (if i had a TC) would not make sense economically at that rate of fire....i have the adapter for the FR7 because that 1916 action is a bit weak for 7.62NATO or .308Win, and at 10cents a round, it's a lot easier to buy a spam can of Tok ammo than to hand-load a bunch of underpowered rounds which i'd invariably confuse and put in a .308 semi, and wonder why the action isn't cycling properly....but that's just me!

+1 on the mcace .308 to 30 mauser (same as 7.62x25 dimensions) adapter. I have had one for my Ishy enfield for ~a year. The tok round is nothing to sneeze at out of a pistol and it only gets better (~1850 fps) out of a 25" barrel Wolf JHP generates almost 650lbs of energy out of my ishy...not bad for a little 85gr bullet.

If one wants cheap plinker, rossi's single shot .308 + mcace adapter might be just what the doctor ordered! Here is a 12ga/.308 matched pair for ~$250 with shipping. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=163517872

This Ishy .308 is slightly more than the rossi, http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=163082410
but if SHTF I would rather have 12 rounds of .308 in my rifle than one

There's this thing:

Doesn't meet your "cheap" criteria though.

I don't see a 7.62x51 to a 7.62x25 adapter at that link. What am I missing?

I would like to use Tok ammo in my 308 / 30-06 bolt action. Would the adapters also work in a semi-auto rifle?

It is the .30 Mauser, I have one I use in my 2A & in a auto, watch out that you don`t lose it.
