I've used pulled GI FMJ's in an M-1 Garand.
The bullets were a 147 grain 30 caliber FMJ, and the bullets had been collet pulled.
Winchester sells a 30 caliber 147 FMJ that appears identical.
That made me curious, so I did a side by side comparison of the 2 bullets to see how the compared. The short answer is that the pulled bullets didn't shoot as well as the new ones.
The pulled bullets shot reasonably well, though, so they're useful for casual banging away, if the price is good.
But,if you want the best out of your rifle, new bullets work better, IME.
