    Alternate Garand Calibers

    Tim, I see you do M1Â’s in .308 and .35 Whelan. Any other calibers in the works? .358 Win perhaps?

    BigGreen this thread was before you joined, but maybe Tim has time with the quarantine to revive this project......

    .243 huh, that sounds interesting.
    Think I might like to have on of those.
    Aw hell, I'll take one of each.

    Lothar Walther currently does M1 barrels in .270 Winchester, 9.63x62 Mauser, 7x64 Brenneke, and 8x57 IS along with the usual .30-06 and .308.
