    Does surplus ammo cause excesive wear

    Hi all,

    I've acquired 800 rounds of surplus .308 ammo through a trade, Pakistani belted ammo and Australian surplus that comes on stripper clips pictures of the cans are below. I've shot some of this through my Armalite AR10 with no issues. I'm looking into purchasing a .308 bolt gun for hunting and to get into long range shooting. My question is, will this ammunition cause excessive wear or damage to a gun that is more precision oriented gun such as a Remington 700. I understand these bullets will not group as well, but being able to use the ammo I have on hand for plinking would be an important factor in my decision to purchase a bolt gun.
