[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 1671817, member: 5391"] That is something that you might want to reconsider. I am informed that the Spanish Mausers were designed for the 7.62mm CETME round, which is dimensionally identical with 7.62mm NATO and the 308 Winchester, but which is loaded to much lower pressures. Thus you might be shooting far hotter ammunition in the rifle than it was designed for. If what I say is so, then the Ruger will also be much, much stronger, hence safer. I could very well be wrong, but I suggest that you at least check it out before you make a substantial investment in the Spanish rifle. [/QUOTE]
