I wish Ruger would make a bolt action carbine in 30 carbine . It fits right in a .22 hornet bolt face . That would be a sweet set . 77/30 .
I think they fill that niche with the 300 blackout Ruger American ranch rifle.I wish Ruger would make a bolt action carbine in 30 carbine . It fits right in a .22 hornet bolt face . That would be a sweet set . 77/30 .
Many of you guys are way too young. Surplus 30 carbine ammo was available for pennies a round in the 60s...

Why would you want to slow it down?The main problem with a 30carbine hand gun is all the ammo is loaded with slower powder like H110, AA9, 2400 so it will cycle an m1 carbine and all the expanding ammo is intended for rifle velocity. So it sux in a handgun.
But if you were to handload 30carbine handgun ammo with say a faster powder so it's more tame in a handgun and use 30mauser HP bullets....
Uh yeah, it would, a lot.Wouldn't be slowing it down much and the bullets would actually expand.
Not reading the post.Uh yeah, it would, a lot.
So lowering velocity encourages expansion? That's a new one.
I guess, CraigC , that you didn't know them speedy boolits just zip on thru like a needle !Uh yeah, it would, a lot.

Yes.Have you ever used a 30carbine handgun?
Me too.Yes.
and I find it no more "obnxious" that a full-up 357 loaded Max w/ W296/H110 -- which burns far less efficiently than the 30 carbine
