Looking at adding a new rifle to the collection.
After having an SKS, AK47 and an AR15, none of which excite me much.
Been thinking about an M1A or a Garand.
I'm tooled up well for the 30-06 so was thinking on going with the garand but through reading and advice from some friends I keep hearing there picky to reload for due to there gas system? Not to mention your limited to 8 rounds.
The M1A looks like a nice unit. Several different barrel lengths and stock combos to choose from. Personally a wood stock and 18 inch barrel would suit me fine.
Never fired a 308 but guessing not much difference than the 06.
Would need to retool, dies and brass.
Have not heard anything about problems on reloading for them as I have on the garand.
I see plenty of 308 ammo at every show I go too.
Just wondering out loud!
