    The only thing to worry about with the 30 carbine is the case length. Once you have sized it then measure it to be sure it is less the 1.290 in length. Trim to about 1.285 which seems to be where most factory ammo is. If it gets too long it can cause an out of battery discharge which is not good for anything or anyone.
