Time to buy more for my Garand.

I last bought a can of 700 which came in 5 round stripper clips on mustard colored canvas bandoliers. I can't remember where I got it from. It was marked Lake City '61 or '69 I beleive and the shipping was free.

Anyone have any clues or recommendations ?

Thanks.

First, I'd recommend www.cole-distributing.com

They have 3 different kinds of 06, some corrosive stuff, some USGI 50's era, and some Lake City stuff.

I went with 500rnds of the USGI ammo, and got a can of TW 52 and a can of TW 53. Fired about 20 rounds and liked it so much I put it away to save. Before that I bought a 400rnd can of Talon from classic arms. Works OK and uses LC brass. $80 + shipping for the talon, the USGI was $100 + shipping.
 
I've been using PMC 150grn 30-06 for the last while. It's been reliable and reasonably priced ($7/20).

I've had several rounds of the Talon ammo short stroke my Garands, so I'm a bit wary of it.
