Hello.
Just getting into shooting and stumbled onto this board...looks like just the thing.
I used to hunt with dad (Deer, Rabit, Dove) when I was young but that was decades ago. Dug out my old Savage 22 rifle and Mossburg 20 ga shotgun and Remmington 700 from the attic and just bought an M1 Garand and a sig 229 but have yet to fire anything.
Am going shooting this sunday for the first time in years on a friends farm on the Eastern Shore and have been unable to find a place that sells ammo for the M1 Garand. I've been advised against using regular 30-06 Springfield and am in a quandry. I'd really like to shoot the M1. Can anyone suggest where I might buy ammo? M2 Ball FMJ 150 grain in Maryland so I can have it in time for Sunday?
I've called to Bart's, the Armory, Bass Pro and a handfull of other small shops I found on line but no one had what I need.
Any recommendations are appreciated. I'd like to get about 500 rounds or so.
regards,
John
