my paperwork is off to the CMP. and I have questions.

what is the average throat/muzzle wear of a service grade M1 and how do those translate to inherent accuracy compared to a new bore?

I have a number of 1947-73 30-06 ammo, mostly lake city of varying types, is all of this stuff M1 safe or was there hotter stuff to look out for?

also, I got it loose in ammo cans, how can i tell if it's lake city or reloads?
