BarryinIN Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 New from Federal, to give us something to ask “What for?” is the .30 Super Carry cartridge. Sort of a rimless .327 Federal. I guess the idea was to outperform the .32ACP and .380ACP, but at 9mm length it pretty much requires a 9mm-size gun. Pressures of around 45k PSI will need a locked breech. But at least it gives us another cartridge we can’t find. https://www.federalpremium.com/30supercarry.html My only interest would be that I wouldn’t turn away an auxiliary .30 Super Carry cylinder for my .32 Mag Single Six. Not that it offers anything new, but it would give one more cartridge option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwillson Posted January 7, 2022 Report Share Posted January 7, 2022 I can't imagine why one wouldn't just use a 9mm? The external ballistics are similar, but you could get 2 more rounds into a subcompact magazine. Does the increased round count really matter? Considering the new round will likely be extinct in a couple years, I'll pass as I'm guessing most will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryinIN Posted July 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I saw last week the local gun shop has plenty of guns in .30 Super Carry. Golly gee, I wonder if they aren’t selling, and why ever not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
