Joe,

I've used Hornady .312 XTP 100 gr bullets with excellent results. The average dimeter of a Winchester Mod. 92 32-20 barrel is .310. The average diameter of a .30 Luger barrel is .309 - .310. They have worked well in several .30 Lugers.

Winchester brass is very thin at the mouth, so it's hard to get a good crimp on a .308 diameter bullet.
