Anybody know where I can get a Chamber collet for my Garand so I can shoot much cheaper 7.62x51 NATO. I posted this question last night but somthing seems to have happened to it.
I saw one at a gun show some years ago but never since.

    Actually, I thing I added a comment to that topic... One that you should probably explore BEFORE you use that collect or insert. YES if you use that insert you can shoot 308 rounds. BUT this insert addes to the unrifled throat length, and you'll lost accuracy. AND the main problem you might run into is you won't be able to remove the insert! They are suppose to be removable with a broken case extractor, but I have heard a number of experts gunsmiths reporting they couldn't remove them! SO... you might want to look at reloading that 06 brass to cut down on your expenses. Good Luck! ...Mark
