30 Carbine Ammo
30 carbine ammo is a classic military caliber that's typically used for target shooting nowadays. The .30 Carbine was widely used during World War II in the M1 Carbine for which it was designed. Since then, a number of revolvers from Taurus, Thompson Center, and Ruger have also been produced in this caliber.
The .30 Carbine's ballistics have been compared to those of a magnum pistol, albeit with a light bullet (typically 110 grains) fired at higher muzzle velocities in the 2,000 feet per second range.
Small game hunters will find that .30 Carbine hunting loads can be had from Magtech, Corbon, and other companies; Hornady even makes a variant of its Critical Defense line for those who wish to use this cartridge for home protection that you'll often find in-stock and for sale here at Widener's.
