  The .30-06 M2ball would work fine in any of your rifles, but you might have a hard time fitting one into your Ruger Mk.II.

  Be aware that many commerical rifles will not set off hard military primers.

  While I have had that problem once or twice with a semi-auto, I've never had that problem in a bolt action.

  THANKS Guys, you to catus-man. Its not my first rodeo. been hunting approx 32years, collecting guns for 25 years, shooting trap 10 years,teaching young shooters for 13 years. have always shot factory ammo. never messed with surplus stuff. I know the difference between 308 and 30-06.
