Details on Converting Garand to .308?

Harry does great work and often has a very nice selection of mil surplus stuff.
Generally nicer stuff with matching price tags. He was listing alot of stuff on NES about a year ago . Beyond my wallets capacity.

stuff like this

im more of 2 or 3 CMP services grades for that kind of money, plus I would ruin all value by shooting it!
 
I tested some light loads in the 308 M1
125gn TNT 41.5 grains H4895 did ok but I had a 2 short strokes so powder bump a bit
SR 10 ring capable for sure. First time behind “full house” loads since OCT

Nice! By the way, I saw a couple YouTube videos on the Garand by a Mac1911. Is that you?
Did you get dizzy watching the vids
If so , yes those are me.
