I have considered getting a garand off and on, most recently off when I
learned that modern 30-06 is hotter than wartime ammo.
So if one gets a surplus rifle from a gun show, CMP, etc. how important is it
to find surplus ammo, or ammo labeled specifically for m-1's?
I just seen that they make that.30-06 M1 Garand Ammo For Sale - 150 gr FMJ - Federal American Eagle Ammo Online
Would it be better to buy a new one and not worry about the rifle exploding?
Or is m-1 ammo readily available? Or is modern ammo a no go in modern rifles also?
