[QUOTE="1911user, post: 1560249, member: 543"] I would do the load development in a bolt-action 30-06 instead of the M1; one based on a Mauser action would be best. Use a chrono on all load development shots to see if the loads are consistent and stable. It is 80 year old rifle powder, no need to risk an M1 to find out it really didn't age well. If you do use an M1 for development, use a vented gas plug for some added rifle protection. [/QUOTE]
