A set of headspace gauges would tell you if there is something different about your "NATO" chamber. There may be, and there may not be.
A gunsmith bud of mine, he gauged a group of Anniston Arsenal rebuilt M14's for a Army unit. Buds in the unit asked him to check the rifles out before they deployed. He told me every one of those M14's swallowed the civilian field gauge.
If your rifle is a semi auto you cannot tell chamber headspace from the fired cartridges. Gas guns open up when there still is pressure in the chamber, it is called the residual blowback effect, and that stretches the case. These cases were fired out of my Supermatch M1a, had been lubricated and fired lubricated in the rifle. That is why I never got a case head separation in 23 firings. But, if you notice, the shoulder has been moved forward. This is due to the shoulder moving forward as the case was extracted. Because the case was lubricated, none of these cases experienced sidewall stretch, just the shoulder reformed.
But, it you took one of these cases, dropped it in a Wilson gage, you would not be measuring chamber headspace. This is something you can do in bolt action rifles, by the time your finger leaves the trigger, barrel pressure is zero. So cases will fireform to the chamber and show correct bolt face to chamber shoulder distances in a bolt gun.
