beefan, I was using the Remington 150 gr. core-lokt in the green box.
It does it's job, the gun digests the rounds ok and on paper it alright. But, in the back of my mind; I wonder if I should be reloading hunting rounds for my m1. Work up a round that is close to the military ball ammo it was designed for shooting. I think this remington load is a little hotter/bullet faster, maybe if I could just tone down the speed somewhat with a reload the gun might like that.
(when I pick up that garand, the weight of it always get me. Humbles me too when I think of the solders who carried them in WWII, Korea and early Vietnam.)
