PTR 91 Question

Hey guys. Quick question here. I used to own a CAI Cetme. I didn't shoot it much because I was always told that if I fired commercial spec .308 thru it and not NATO 7.62, I would have problems with the extractor ripping the cases apart and then double feeding a round into the carcass of the spent and shredded shell casing. Is this something to worry about with the PTR 91? I am goign to be leaving for work in a minute here and I am thinking of stopping by the gun store to buy a PTR91.

HK does have violent ejection with any full power ammo - I have never had a problem with any ammo I have fired in my HK91. 8)

My PTR91 funtions great.
It throws brass all over the place if you don't put a brass catcher on it.
They come out w/a corrugated-smoked effect from the fluted chamber & the blow back action.
I mostly shoot reloads w/no problems.
Also they are accurate!
I'm going to get my barrel threaded (it is an early one under Clinton's era) so I can put my 7.62 sd on it to reduce the muzzle blast from 18" barrel.
