Yep, it shoots 7.62/.308 WIn. Uses metric FAL magazines. Since it has a fully adjustable gas system, it is the softest shooting 7.62 I have ever shot. The recoil is not much more than an AR. Because of the balance of the bullpup, even though it is heavier and a more powerfull cartridge, my 5'4 wife can shoot it as easilly as she can the AR...
