Otherwise, you have two choices:

1) An adjustable gas plug which will allow you to use commercial .30-06

2) use the ammo the rifle was designed for. There's more than just ".30-06". The M1 rifle was designed to use M2 ball, a type of .30-06
no you have three options.
your two, plus reloading.
there are several powders on the market today that make great m2 substitutes.
imr4895
and
h4895, are two of the most well known garand powders.

m2 ball prices have sky rocketed.
i was getting greek not that long ago for around 125 per spam can.
several years ago the korean stuff was $89per 480rds, the bandilers of the corrosive stuff was even cheaper.
times have changed......
