I used my friend's Midway catalog to order some bullets. The bullets are 30 caliber, 85grain round nose. I was going to give them a try in my 30 Carbine.
I got the bullets today. On the side of the bullet box in red letters is the following warning: Handgun Use Only.
Yes, they are listed in the handgun bullet section of the catalog. But there are other bullets there that can be used in rifles. 35 and 44 caliber bullets come to mind.
I also decided to check the Hodgdon Data Website. The bullet in question is listed along with different powder charges. I guess Hodgdon doesn't have a problem using this bullet in 30 Carbine Cartridges.
Should I try these bullets in my Carbine?
Has anyone here tried them?
What could be the possible danger, if any, in using them?
