Can you run 3/8 .50 chain on a 3/8 .63 bar? Would the chain be loose because its not thick enough
 
Waste of a bar and a chain.

You'll eventually grind the groove out of the bar, and the drive teeth on the chain will wear unevenly. The chain will be able to lean over and snag in the cut, and it'll get worse as the groove wears. The torn up drive teeth won't be good for your saw's drive sprocket either.
