You are correct. But to all intense and purpose you can treat then as straight walled in so far that there is no shoulder to bump and they head space on the case mouth etc. just like a straight walled round. They also do not seem to grow and need trimming like a bottle neck cartridge does. The slight taper is there to ease extraction as there ain't much pop in this round to cycle the action.
Them being straight walled, they last quite a while . I have had more than a dozen loads out of them. The primer pockets then get sloppy after that and need tightening up with a punch and a ball bearing.
They do a number on pests around the house as well. The better half likes shooting that old M1 Carbine as well as it has next to no recoil. And its cheap to feed. During the east shortage I went to plinking with the M1 instead of using 22lr
I would stay away from cast bullets as they gum up the gas system and that ta keys some time to put right again and 130 is a tad heavy for it as well unless you are not using an M1 carbine
@@finniganshomestead2956 I put hundreds of rounds of cast bullets through my m1 carbine never had a problem I just lost my reloading notes in a house fire
@@finniganshomestead2956 ive shot hundreds of rounds through my carbine with 130 gr cast and ball 680 with absolutely no issues, ihave 2 lbs of 680 and there is nothing else suitable around,my reloading notes were lost long ago,i realy dont want to guess
I was using W296 in carbine. For some reason with manual recommended 14 H110 the cases looked really blown out and expanded more than with the Win powder or factory loads. Headspace and barrel is not and issue in this case. Did not cause any problems, it just looked hot on the fired cases. I got 2400 but have not used that in carbine. Loads were with either 110 RN or SP.
I use for my 1943 M1 Carbine 13.5 grain H110 , bullet PPU 110 grain FMJ .Have shot several thousand and no malfunctions.Ramshot Enforcer is also very good
Have to disagree, it's a tapered wall. It's .356" at the base and .336" at the mouth.

how many times can you use a case when loading .30 carbine??

Good fun Scuba1!
Been using Berry's & H110 for years in my M1 Carbines, a most excellent combination for range fodder/fun!

I use Redding sizing wax all cases . And trim all to 1.280 . A slight flare to the mouth and a slight taper crimp 14.5 gr of H 110 works Great 👍

I tried a few powders but keep coming back to H110 for the 3 carbine. It just plain works and i am done sperimentin with it.
Great vid!!
The next one will have better sound . Thanks for watching
