50rds – 30-06 Hornady M1 Garand 150gr. FMJ Ammo

Hornady Ammunition 150 Grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) Ammo Details

Have you been given the honor of playing custodian to an M1 Garand rifle? Then you mustn’t take your duties lightly! Exclusively feed your M1 Garand a steady diet of M2 ball ammunition, such as exactly what you see for sale before you.

Hornady didn’t load this 30-06 cartridge quite as hot as the average contemporary hunting load. They loaded to a chamber pressure of 50,000 psi, which is quite a bit softer than SAAMI’s maximum allowable 60,000 psi pressure. That propels the 150 grain bullet to a respectable muzzle velocity of 2,740 fps without jeopardizing the M1 Garand’s sensitive guiding rod. Everyone’s happy!

This isn’t WWII military surplus. It’s brand new, and made by Hornady of all manufacturers: one of the country’s most reputable, whose high-quality components and all-scrutinizing approach to quality control are undeviatingly reassuring. As is always the case with M2 ball, this ammo is loaded with non-expanding FMJs which aren’t ideal (or, usually, legal) for taking down Mr. W. Tail.
