I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday, we both have M1s. Mine is standard 3006, and his has been re-chambered to .308. He says he only gets three reloads on a piece of brass and that once fired his empty brass will not fir back in the chamber. When I got home I got a fired brass and it slid right into my chamber.
Anyone know why his will not or why mine will, which ever is not normal. I have a few pieces of brass I have loaded nine times and see no reason why it could not be loaded again. While he says three is max in his gun.
