308 .32 conversion...anyone tried it?

[Magiccarpetrides]

Sportsmans Guide has a steel round that allows you to shoot .32 through a .308. Seemed like it might be fun for plinkin since 32 is fairly cheap. Anyone tried this?

Ive read about it on SHTF survival forums and it seems to be popular for BOB bags and survival TEOTWAWKI scenarios.

When I first read the title of this thread.. I ignored it. Why you ask.. um.. .320 into .308.. something seems awful wrong there.

I think they're both 7.8mm bullets, though the .32 is like .001 greater diameter.

Like I said its in the sportsmans guide. Right now .32 is a lot cheaper then 308 ;-D Again if anyone has any experience good or bad please chime in.

308 = 7.62mm

32 = 8.?????mm

just don't think that it is a good idea at all.
