Many of the posts I read regarding .30-06 ammo for the M1 Garand have two themes.
The first is that modern factory ammo is not well-suited for the M1. This comes as a surprise since my M1 has always functioned well with 150 FMJ grain Federal American Eagle and FMJ 150 grain PMC. I hope I haven't damaged my rifle!!
The other theme is that the surplus ammo for which the M1 was built is quickly becoming less available.
So now I'm all worried. Seriously I am concerned. The M1 garand is a legendary rifle. Is it possible that the day is approaching when there will no longer be .30-06 ammo suited for use in the M1?
Please help comfort me here.
