7.62x51 Nato
"1988 Palma Match"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The 7.62x51mm NATO (also
known as the 308 Winchester in Sporting Cartridges) was the USA submitted (T-65) tested in the early 1950s by NATO. The T-65 was a
30-06 case, shortened from 63 mm
to 51 mm.  It is still considered a
standardized NATO Cartridge, along
with the 5.56x45mm to this day.
The first Palma Trophy Match was held on September 13-14, 1876 at Creedmoor Range, Long Island, New York, USA. Participants were Australia, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, and the United States.
The 1988 Palma Match was hosted by Sydney Australia,  and these cartridges
were produced for that match.

This was the 30 year anniversary
of the 7.62x51mm NATO Cartridge.
