I have a 1945 SA Garand from the CMP. Typically it feeds/fires my reloads just fine, but I had a rather disturbing jam the other day.
In a nutshell the round jammed with a severe pinch halfway down the case. It was bent at about a 15 degree angle. Last year I had a similar stoppage but the case neck got pinched and the bullet was badly mangled.
Any idea what would cause this? Maybe it's just a Garand thing, but just checking.
