Very interesting...I was recently asking similar questions and was told the bullet weight was the determining factor--don't shoot bullets above 170gr through a Garand.
also wrong. Hornady lists bullet weights all the way up to 178gr for the M1 specifically. the burn rate of the powder and pressure levels are what determines M1 safe loads or not.
