Anyone shot .303 pellets in an Air Force Texan .308

Smaller? .303 as in the Daystate Wolverine etc. is .308 it's a marketing thing, I rodded one and an NSA slug through a .308 C/F barrel and they felt as they would with any normal airgun pellet in an airgun barrel!

Oddities like this are common in the powder burner world. The .303 LE British round is actually .311 in diameter and is larger than the .308 size used for most other 30 cal instances.

WOW.. did not know that.

Wait so.... 303 Daystates shoot projectiles larger than 308? I was under the deep impression .303 (in a Daystate context )was just another way of saying .300, I feel like many people are using .300 in their 303's.....!!
