I posted a question earlier about source for reloading brass for the M1 Garand. I was thinking about purchasing or having built an M1 Garand with a USGI receiver and 308 barrel to be able to use ammo/reloading components that are less expensive than 06. In researching this I came across several interesting discussions as to whether a Garand built on a 50+ year old receiver rebarreled to 308 qualifies to be a C&R rifle. A USGI Garand in it's original configuration is without a doubt a C&R. What about the the Garand with a USGI receiver rebarreled to 308 in it's original configuration with the same caliber just a different cartridge? Your thoughts?
