Honestly it depends on your load and what your accuracy expectations are.

Shooting 150gr M2 or 173gr M72 bullets with a charge of 4895 or 4064 you probably won't see much of a difference between cases.

If you can get 2 minuts with the M2 projectiles and 1 minute with the M72s, you are doing great for a Garand.

Personally I'd give it a shot, it can't shoot any worse than some milsurp ammo out there.
