Hornady makes some nice match ammo specifically for the M1. It is available from the CMP at a very reasonable cost (for match ammo).
You will both it and some cheaper stuff here: http://estore.odcmp.com/store/catalog/catalog.aspx?pg=catalogList&cat=AMC |

As stated you can get a adjustable gas plug or shoot ammo made for the Garand, my suggestion would be order ammo from the CMP and then keep brass for reloading, that's what I did then I processed the brass and loaded it up with 147g Hornady FMJ pill sitting on top of 46.5g of IMR 4895
