Is all of that safe for the Garand or just those couple of boxes?

Same bullet weight but all others have Soft Point. I am not an expert on the requirement of the M1, if they feed fine, they should shoot fine.
I'm not sure it's that simple. I'm interested in the boxes that are certainly for the Garand and probably the rest if it truly is okay for a Garand. However, don't hesitate to sell to someone else if they take you up on this offer. I have quite a bit of ammo for my Garand already, but don't come across some all that often.

I did some google foo. Here is the article that describes what is going on. They have a new ported gas screw that reduces the total impulse and port pressure.
It is a good article.

Below 300 should be safe for M1.
So, from the test:
Winchester power-point 150 gr: 5% over M2 Ball with factory gas screw.
Federal 150 SP: safe, below 300
Rem 150 Core-Lokt: safe, below 300
For $40 their gas port screw would give peace to ones mind as per rod integrity.
