      Anyone have M1 garand loads

      Looking to load for my Garand that i build at the CMP builders class. I have a bunch of 748 i would like to use on 155gr FMJ, but i can't seem to find good data out there. Just a max load. I wanted to keep the pressure lower than it was talking on that max load for the Garand. Thanks

      Nice, but i hate to say its somewhat exactly what i despise in hunting. i loved the days of NO pay hunting or leased land etc. just chat with a landowner and all is well. i have lost so many hunitng places over the years to people who come in a pay for it. ahh sorry for the rant
