For SIGSHR and Scorch. . . . . .

Here's the history of the 7.62 NATO round's development and its commercial equal, the .308 Winchester:

Note that in 1944 Springfield Armory was instructed to develop the new weapon (eventually the M14) and Frankford Arsenal to develop the cartridge (eventually, the 7.62x51mm NATO).
