Once again, I tell you all that here in Canada we knew nothing about this impending doom of firing hunting ammo through an M1 for years and years. Only in the past few years has this info come to light. Basicly with the start of these forums I would guess. Until then we shot all that came to hand. I never even HEARD of the detonation you suggest. Once again we rehash this subject here on the open forum. Maybe Badger would consider putting several of these threads up as a sticky to avoid doing this repeatedly. I see most of the regulars aren't even here this time. By the way, I don't know of anyone here who uses a Shuster or any other type of adjustable gas plug. Most M1 owners won't even know what you're talking about.

Problem is not with a slam-fire but with bending OP-Rods with the slower powders having higher port PSI/Megapascals.
