I need to pick up some ammo for my M1 Garand. Here are my questions.
1. Must I jump through the same hoops to buy "ammo" from CMP?
2. I need clips. What is the best ammo to order? Should I order a can of ammo already in clips? Or should I obtain clips another way?
3. I read that I can't shoot commercial ammo unless I buy a gas plug. Isn't that just for heavier loads and/or heavier charges. Isn't their some anemic 150 grain ammo on the commerical market that I could buy?
4. Can I reload the brass from CMP?
5. When I reload for my Garand, (without a new gas plug) what must I keep in mind? Special powders? Bullet weight?
