I would agree with the top post here, I have a 1964 Indian .308 SMLE. I had wanted to try out a SMLE for some time, and I fell upon it for a good price ($150, a few years back), and it was in .308, so I got it. It has turned out to be a nice rifle.
As for shooting regular .308 rounds. From what I have read, the Indian .308's were made from the ground up in .308 from somewhere around 1960 forward, rifles dated earlier than that may have been rechambered. So, my thinking has been that mine, dated '64, would be fine with regular mil-surplus loads, as it was built for them...
But, if anyone has any information going against this... let me know here, I have put quite a few rounds through this rifle, and if it shouldn't be able to handel it, I'd like to know.
