Right, nothing inherently wrong with interchanging 7.62 and .308. The FN is a strong design, and could well handle pressures generated by the .308 case as well as heavier bullet.
Like the differences between .223 and 5.56mm. They‘re there, but not always dangerous or even noticable.
The biggest point I‘d want to make though, it that as often as you hear that experience counts, with firearms that‘s not the whole story. Evidence along the lines of "I did it once" "My buddy did it once" is not really compelling... Knowledge is key here if you‘re reloading and don‘t want to eventually get hurt. Maybe it didn‘t fail that time, but fatigue in weapons is not only cumulative, but dependent on hundreds of factors. Knowledge keeps you safe. Read, learn, then do.
