FOUND: KOREAN 30 CAL BALL M1 Garand 30-06 Ammo

Just out of curiosity, has anyone ever just changed the primers in this type of ammo. From what I am reading (besides the corrosive issue) it the primers that are the problem. It would be interserting to chronograph the original and then using modern primers and the same powder in the same casing reduced load.

Yes, that exactly what I do, though we don't get so much of it here. That is to say I've never had to do a thousand rounds... Some stuff I've had were hangfires so it was the only way to be sure.

Have you seen what they do on a chronograph? it would be interesting the see if there are any significant changes
