Hello all. The good idea fairy recently convinced me to build a Garand with NM touches. I have already purchased NM sights and I already have a bunch of spare standard parts laying around (magazine parts, oprod, gas cylinder, stock, etc). I will be buying a USGI stripped receiver and either a Criterion or Krieger barrel (still haven't decided...need to do more research on both). After I get the barrel installed into the receiver and all remaining parts, I will be sending it to CMP for their upgrade service they offer. The problem is, is I am torn as to whether I want to go with the normal 30.06, or .308. I already reload for both so I will not have to get anything extra for either. Is one better than the other or is it mostly just personal preference? I already have a SA Garand in 30.06 so part of me thinks it would be a nice addition to have one in .308. What say you?
