ive read that if an m1 is ejecting 3 oclock or rearward more than that, and everything else is in good order that you can tune the ejector by clipping a coil off the spring and retest, and repeat until the desired direction is obtained.

here is one example of where i saw it:

(from someone called artee)
Tune your ejector plunger spring (FIRST) to make your brass pattern consistent.
(from someone called fatelvis)
Artee, can you explain how this tuning is done? Thanks-
(artee replied)
Remove ejector spring. Cut off a coil. Reassemble and shoot. Should have brass ejecting at 1 to 1:30 (where it lands). Should only take a coil and a half or so. Wise to order a spare spring before you start....
it is also mentioned, but without as much detail, in "the complete m1 assembly guide" by walt kuleck and clint mckee.

does anyone have experience or input on this subject?
