This guide details the process of handloading .30-06 Springfield ammunition, as demonstrated by Misha on Misha's Guns. It covers casing recovery, cleaning, depriming, priming, resizing, powder charging, bullet seating, and crimping using a Lee Precision reloading press. The reloaded rounds are then prepared for use in an M1 Garand rifle via an en-bloc clip. The demonstration highlights experienced handling of both the reloading process and the M1 Garand.

This video explains the key difference between standard and Palma .308 Winchester ammunition. While most cartridges use a single primer type, .308 Winchester offers two: standard uses a large rifle primer, and Palma uses a small rifle primer. The small rifle primer in Palma ammunition promotes more consistent ignition and pressure, leading to tighter groups downrange, making it advantageous for competitive shooting. For hunters, standard large primer .308 Win is recommended for its enhanced reliability in adverse conditions. Importantly, both types of .308 ammunition are compatible with any .308 rifle.
