The M1 Garand shoots a 30-06 caliber round. When the Garand was first being developed, it was intended for a cartridge known as the .276 Pedersen, which was dropped in favor of the larger 30-06. The US Navy attempted to convert some M-1 Garands to the 7.62 NATO cartridge in later years with very limited success.
The Garand fires the 30-06 rifle cartridge, and the Carbine fires the .30Carbine personal defence (pistol) cartridge.
For Range the M1Garand is better, but for close quarters and compact-ability the M1/M1A1 Carbine is better. It's the difference between cartridge's M1 garand is in 30-06, and the M1/M1A1 carbine is in 30 carbine, which is designed for close range shooting
