Is the Garand a fudd gun?
No because it actually was advanced for it’s time and I don’t think anyone is claiming it’s better than an AR or and AK. Accuracy wise it might be better than a lot of modern day rifles but that’s all it really has going for it.
fudd round, not a fudd gun

got rid of that shit handguard
Looks good

The classic
Or just build a sten lmao
My roommate got a Garand .308 conversion
It's less fudd than 30-06
How would it be less fuss?
Basically all the stuff about having to “worry about loads” is bullshit
You won’t bend the oprod with really any factory ammo
*fudd
Oh
Oof, phone did me a bad
Yes
Idk I like using .30-06 but I have a fuckton of it that my grandpa left behind when he died
It’s been ten years and I still have a one of those gorilla shelves stacked to the top with .30-06 ammo in clips
The big ones at that
nice
I mean
I’d rather have him back than have loads of ammo.
30-06 is still a viable round
Not fudd at all
Isn’t it like right on par with 7.62 nato though
Hotter and heavier
And if you reload more play in the load data
Huh, I thought they had wound up with nearly identical kinetic energy
I don’t reload though
I do keep all the brass though. Lots of it was mangled pretty bad out of one of my Garands though. Dunno why.
.308 factory loads have surpassed 30-06 loads because 30-06 factory loads have to be pressured for 1903s and the old pressure standard
Though with the larger case cap you can definitely get more interesting performance out of it with reloads
Anyone get a Tac-14/Shockwave type gun yet? I'm ordering one Friday, was curious as to some recommended loads for fun
Aguila minishells
You're welcome
>Shell flips
I would suggest starting with low recoil stuff to get a feel for it before moving to full power loads
I have a shockwave and it’s honestly so fun to shoot.
The recoil isn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be even with higher powered shells
